Transitions and paradigms
“Poverty is the inability to command events that affect our lives.” At this important time of crisis, I am reminded of the work of three of my good friends: Jonas Salk, Ernest Callenbach, Tarzie Vittachi. Each has contributed something very important in trying to understand the future. Jonas Salk, involved with bacteriology, chose as a metaphor the S shaped curve. In this curve, he states that when resources are infinite the growth of bacteria is…
Health and greening the city; relation of urban planning and health
Relation of urban planning and health This is an unusual paper, as the subject, the relation of open green space and health has rarely been studied.1 It is extremely well done. In the 1960s, at a meeting of the Outdoor Recreation Resources Commission
The essence of community
Speakers's corner The essence of communityThere is an increase of self interests and turf issues, in the health field.The reply to change is "We can't do that!"It reflects the inability and fear of exploring "alternate scenarios".It demands dreaming, speculation and surprise.This response of politicians, unwilling to take risks, is an excuse for leadership, using polls of public opinion.A leader is a coach, enabler, facilitator to find new storie…
Handbook of religion and health
Handbook of religion and health. Harold G Koenig, Michael E McCullough, David B Larsen. New York: Oxford Press, 2001. During the past few years there has been a resurgence in concern with the role of religion and spirituality and health. Before that there were anecdotal reports, as well as a beginning awareness of the impact of other spiritual belief systems on human illness and growth. This can be seen in the non-Western treatment activities in …
The future, complexity, death and surprise
During the past months, I have almost been overwhelmed by the deaths of friends. I had never believed that I would be awash in all this death and dying. The earlier dying of my parents was calmer, and almost expected. My mum's death is less full of feeling now, but sadly, memory of her death has faded over the years. What is left from the deaths in the past 10 years, are rich memories. Most are good, and full of the stories and doings, that helpe…
Finding identity in a virtual world
Finding identity in a virtual worldWe are living in a world where we each belong to diverse groups.We identify with these.Yet, most times they fragment our friendships, with even good friends belonging to a few of our circles.This is increasingly true of families, organisations and communities.Some of us find little in our living or work communities relating primarily to scattered people in other geographical settings.In 1968, I started a paper f…
Conditions for healthy cities; diversity, game boards and social entrepreneurs
Conditions for healthy cities; diversity, game boards and social entrepreneurs describes how our inability to develop systems of governance that respond to the diversity and complexity evident in all cities helps explain why city authorities have proved so ineffective at addressing urban problems. The paper also promotes new ways of understanding cities and the roles of social entrepreneurs in moving towards more healthy cities
Superfluous people in tomorrow’s society
The healthy city: Its function and its future
The author describes urban health and what constitutes a healthy city. Emphasis is placed on the importance of the various parts of the city/organism communicating with each other and remaining responsive and flexible. The healthy city/organism must be competent for each of its members/parts and for the community as a whole. Several overall requirements that are presented as important for a healthy city are: that the city's responses to its devel…
Health and the Inner and Outer Sky
Viewing health beyond the concept of the absence of disease has to do with the way we feel and interact with everything around us. When we have the ability to use all of our senses and all aspects of our body, mind, and soul to sort out knowledge, beliefs, concepts, and memories, this wholeness becomes the totality of the universe. In this article, using the sky as the symbol of universal vastness, openness, and nearly unimaginable meaning, the a…

Peace: An alternative strategy
Interdisciplinary Teaching in Health
In this brief survey, the author sketches his hopes and the difficulties of introducing an interdisciplinary approach to the academic training of health personnel. The solution would appear to be an organizing framework in which the many medical and health disciplines, their values and end results, could be synthesized into a single interdisciplinary approach. Our quality of life depends on this

Physical and Mental Health in the City
The intimate relationship of problems of health and problems of the city forms the basis for a dynamic ecological approach to planning for physical and mental health in the city. Rational co-ordination is required in order to maximize the contributions of health professionals and city planners, who must work with and learn from experts in welfare, education, labor, business, architecture, economics, and related fields in their efforts to plan app…
The Urban Condition: People and Policy in the Metropolis
A Mental Health Program for the Peace Corps
The goals of the mental health program which have developed within the Peace Corps program may be viewed both in general and in highly specific terms. These two perspectives are closely interrelated and interdependent. As seen from the one perspective, the mental health program seeks for the individual the very values which the Peace Corps itself offers him: an opportunity for intellectual and emotional growth; for discovery of his own capacities…
