Why is it important?
the theme and the article are important because humanism almost disappeared from the profession and education in modern medicine. Modern technologies tend to replace doctor-patient communication as an important component of the treatment process.
Perspectives
The article seems to be of interest to a wide professional audience . Nowadays it is very important to share experiences and exchange ideas within the professional community. I hope, medical educationists will learn about a variety of examples of bringing humanities into the profession and medical education, find ways to collaborate and develop joint courses, educational programs, organize international conferences on the theme.
