About the book >.>.> This collection of brief commemorative writings presents a unique opportunity to know the man better through the eyes of colleagues and friends Honoring Dr. Tournier on the occasion of his 75th birthday. thirty-nine writers from many countries-among them general prac titioners internists psychiatrists surgeons doctors’ wives specialists of varied disciplines-reveal their indebtedness to the man and his philosophy. We see in them the projection and extension of Dr. Tournier’s thinking on some of the most pressing concerns of our day: the search for identity and meaning the problems of medical ethics in contemporary society the spiritual aspects of physical and mental health. Contributors to this book have all been participants at the confer- ences of medicine of the whole person held for one study-week each summer in different European countries. Named after the site of the first meeting in Switzerland in 1947 (LL)
