    Extractions: Aequanimitas Genre Essay (6 pp. in alternate source) Keywords Art of Medicine Doctor-Patient Relationship Empathy Physician Experience Summary Osler's famous essay was first delivered as a valedictory address at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine in 1889. Osler urges the graduates to develop two qualities or virtues. First is the "bodily" virtue of imperturbability or "a judicious measure of obtuseness." This means the outward expression of calmness and coolness, even under difficult circumstances. This virtue suggests that physicians should be relatively "insensible" to the slings-and-arrows of patient care, always maintaining a degree of detachment from their patients. The complementary "mental" virtue is aequanimitas, which is the personal quality of calmly accepting whatever comes in life. These virtues, however, should not lead to "hardness" in dealing with patients. Osler also urges his students and colleagues to develop the other gentlemanly virtues of courage, patience, and honor.

    Extractions: Subjects: Abstract: This essay describes collaborations between American pharmaceutical companies and clinical investigators, mainly in academic medical centers and other research institutions, during the interwar period. I argue that efforts on the part of early twentieth-century "scientific medicine" reformers to impose higher standards on the testing and promotion of pharmaceuticals led both to the intended disciplining of the drug industry and also, as a reciprocal but unintended consequence, to a deep involvement with industry among medical scientists. Three basic patterns of collaboration between clinical trialists and sponsoring drugs firms are described. These patterns may help illuminate the mutual accommodation between ethical drug firms and academic clinical researchers (and institutions) that still prevails today.

Scope and contents This collection consists of letters, 1885 to 1919, written by Sir William Osler. The time span covered by the collection includes Osler's years in Philadelphia (18841889), at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland (1889-1904), and as Regius Professor of Medicine at Oxford, England (1905-1919). Recipients of Osler's letters include Thomas B. Futcher (1871-1938), Guy Hinsdale (1858-1948), W. H. Jefferys (1871-1945), William W. Keen (1837-1932), E. B. Krumbhaar (1882-1966), S. Weir Mitchell (1829-1914), and William Pepper (1874-1947). Also present are letters to Osler from Horatio C. Wood (1874-1958). In a few of his letters, Osler discusses patients and their case histories, but most of the correspondence is personaljin nature. In many letters, Osler comments on his colleagues' latest publications or lectures. Some of the correspondence in the collection pertains to Osler's participation in the College of Physicians of Philadelphia; in a letter of 9 January 1885, Osler submits the first installment of his fellowship dues. Also present is a resolution (22 December 1916) signed by thirty four members of the College of Physicians to convey their regrets at Osler's absence from their latest meeting. In his letter to John Ashhurst (21 February 1894), Osler donates money for the W. S. W. Ruschenberger portrait, and in his letter to William W. Keen (18 July 1908?), Osler mentions the construction of the new College building. Other letters in the collection document Osler's passion for collecting rare medical books and manuscripts. In his letters to S. Weir Mitchell (12 December 1911? and 16 March 1912), Osler discusses his most recent acquisitions; he also comments on the William Harvey manuscripts. In his 1911 letter to Mitchell, Osler mentions his acceptance of the Siliman Lectureship at Yale. Many of the letters in the collection inform the recipients of Osler's latest travels and appointments. In his letter to (John Bingham?) Roberts, Osler announces his decision to accept a position at Johns Hopkins; in a letter to J. C. Wilson, Osler explains that he has been awarded the Regius Professorship of Medicine at Oxford. Of special interest in the collection are two letters sent to Osler by Horatio C. Wood. In these letters, Wood discusses a book of poetry, First and Last (Philadelphia, 1864), written by his father, George B. Wood. Osler apparently was interested in obtaining a copy of this rare work. Wood also discusses some of the recent events of World War I. Also of interest is Osler's letter to Thomas B. Futcher (28 October 1919); in the letter, Osler discusses his latest travels in Jersey and Glasgow and reports on his recent illnesses. Osler died two months later.
