Through the Physician's Eyes: AMA President's Inaugural Address, 2001

With the preponderance of weapons these days, it comes as no surprise that gun violence--both self-inflicted and against others--is now a serious public health crisis. No one can avoid its brutal and ugly presence. No one. Not physicians. Not the public. And most certainly not the politicians--no matter how much they might want to.

President's inaugural address. Learning our lessons: the future of education and training in Britain

Britain has no acceptable future other than as a successful manufacturing nation; our position within the European Community of nations does not alter that fact. The extent of our success will be determined by the quality of our workforce, and that will depend upon education and training. The paper reviews how the social and educational history of Britain has divided the nation and led to the present poor performance of our industries. The state of our education and vocational training is contrasted with that in Germany, our key economic competitor. Proposals are made for the progressive improvement in our position, based upon a coherent approach to schools, higher education and the provision of vocational training. The role that the Institution of Electrical Engineers can play in this most critical national task is identified.

President's Inaugural Address: Distribution and utilisation of electrical power: a renaissance for the 21st Century

The history of the electricity supply industry (ESI) of England and Wales is one of service to society. The supply engineers have ensured continuity of supply while improving efficiency and cost-effectiveness in the fields of distribution and utilisation. International growth in demand for energy is depleting the fossil-fuel reserves and damaging the environment. This paper argues that the greater use of electricity to meet energy needs will result in better control of the environment and more efficient use of fuel. It is suggested that a co-ordinated drive is required from all sectors of power engineering to achieve this aim. Success will depend on the ready availability of electrical equipment and processes to enable society to use energy in an efficient and environmentally safe manner. The newly formed Public Electricity Supply Companies seem well placed to induce the co-ordination of all sectors of power engineering. The result could be a renaissance in the British power engineering industry with subsequent benefit to our economy.

The Chemical Process Industries And the Point Four Program

INVESTORS and managers of the chemical process industries have had their interest stimulated in foreign investments as a result of the Point Four of the President's Inaugural Address a year ago, calling for technical assistance and investments in underdeveloped areas. It is known that lack of technical and economic know-how has retarded the progress of many of these countries. American industry has already invested considerable sums abroad as can be seen from Table I. In fact, it has been estimated at about $11.4 billion at the end of 1948, most of it in direct investments. While before 1929 most of the investments were in public utilities, the chemical process industries have predominated during the past two decades. The pulp and paper production of Canada, mining and smelting enterprises throughout the world, and more recently, petroleum outlays in Venezuela and Saudi Arabia, are the more publicized, yet by no means the only significant foreign investments. Recent ...
