'>No other country spends what we do per capita for medical care. The care available is among the best technically, even if used too lavishly and thus dangerously, but none of the countries that stand above us unhealthy status have such a high proportion of medically disenfranchised persons. Given the evidence that medical care is not that valuable and access to care not that bad. it seems most unlikely that our bad showing is caused by the significant proportion who are poorly served. Other hypotheses have greater explanatory power: excessive poverty, both actual and relative, and excessive affluence.Excessive poverty is probably more prevalent in the U. S. than in any of the countries that have a better infant mortality rate and female life expectancy at birth. This is probably true also for all but four or five of the countries with a longer male life expectancy. In the notably poor countries, that exceed us in male survival, difficult living conditions arc a more accepted way of life and in several of them, a good basic diet, basic medical care and basic education, and lifelong employment opportunities are an everyday fact of life. In the U. S. a motional unemployment level of 10 percent may be 40 percent in the ghetto while less than 4 percent clscwhcic. Tlic counirics that have surpassed us in health do not have such severe or entrenched problems. Nor are such a high proportion of their people involve in them. Excessive affluence is not so obvious a cause of ill health, but, at least until recently, few other nations could aft'ord such unhcaltbful ways of living. Excessive intake of animal protein and fats, dangerous intake of alcohol and use of tobacco and drugs (prescribed and proscribed), and dangerous recreational sports and driving habits are all possible only bemuse of affluence. Our heritage, desires, opportunities, and our machism, combined with the relatively low cost of bad foods and speedy vehicles, make us particularly vulnerable to our affluence. And those who are not affluent try harder. Our unacceptable health status, then, will not be improved appreciably by expanded medical resources nor by their redistribution so much as by a general at tempt to improve ihc quality of life for all.

Scholars and students have always been great travelers. (1). The official case for “academic mob- ility” is now often stated in impressive terms as a fundamental necessity for economic and social pro- gress in the world, and debated in the corridors of Europe，but it is certainly nothing new. Serious students were always ready to go abroad in search of the most stimulating teachers and the most famous academies; in search of the purest philosophy, the most effective medicine, the likeliest road to gold.Mobility of this kind meant also mobility of ideas, their transference across frontiers, their simul- taneous impact upon many groups of people. (2). The point of learning is to share it, whether with students or with colleagues: one presumes that only eccentrics have no interest in being credited with a startling discovery，or a new technique. It must also have been reassuring to know that other people in other parts of the world were about to make the same discovery or were thinking along the same lines，and that one was not quite alone，confronted by inquisition, ridicule or neglect.In the twentieth century, and particularly in the last 20 years，the old footpaths of the wandering scholars have become vast highways.(3) The vehicle which has made this possible has of course been the aeroplane，making contact between scholars even in the most distant places immediately feasible，and providing for the very rapid transmission of knowledge.Apart from the vehicle itself, it is fairly easy to identify the main factors which have brought a- bout the recent explosion in academic movement.(4). Some of these are purely quantitative and re- quire no further mention: there are far more centers of learning，and a far greater number of scholars and students.(5). In addition one must recognize the very considerable multiplication of disciplines，particularly in the sciences, which by widening the total area of advanced studies has produced an enormous num-ber of specialists whose particular interests are precisely defined. These people would work in some i- solation if they were not able to keep in touch with similar isolated groups in other countries.
