Medicine has suffered the full effects of the scientific outpouring of information. ... As a stopgap measure, medical schools have kept the total number of years constant, but have lengthened the per-week teaching load. Thus medical students at Harvard attend twice as many hours of classes per week as law or business students. Of necessity, this makes medical education a very passive business and deprives the student of the single most important thing he desperately needs to learn while at school -- how to initiate the educational process for himself, later on, when he is a practitioner.
