Especially, when reader has lived such as events more than half a century ago! However, you must pay highest attention on the fact that every clever young "physician" has to try to add - possibly - new knowledge to the old one, since Science is a continuous advancement! Interestingly, I am told you are starting to do more specialised modules like neuroscience and endocrinology (which has lots of scary long words like hypothalamoadenohypophysial). Well! The complicated Psycho-Neuro-Endocrine-Immunological System plays a paramount role - especially when inhereditely altered - in some, dangerous human disorders, like cancer. But in 1955 nobody knew it! One may comprehend easily that you are really excited (in a very medical studenty way!) about learning theoretical and practical Medicine aspects.
