Saving Our Earth and Humanity: Challenge to a Younger Generation Ethhical Analyses (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781669829478)

My friendship with Dr. Antal Syom covers more than seven decades. He decided during our high school years to commit himself to the practice of medicine, both as a scientist and a clinician, a decision that no doubt grew out of his battle with hepatitis. His multifaceted career has been distinguished by personal and professional integrity. Money or position never seduced him, though he dreamed of becoming a university professor. He remains a perennial student, teacher, and helper. He became an academic psychiatrist in America and made special contributions to Infant Psychiatry and Affect Regulation and Attachment. He expanded his vocation to Bioethics and published in the field of bioethical advocacy. Bioethics considers every part of our Mother Earth as a living organism. Dr. Syom recognized this only relatively recently, coming to understand that dangerous changes in our global climate will adversely affect human health. This has become the last, but different area of his medical vocation. The emphasis is on prevention and on the historical responsibilities of the young generation. I recommend this book for healthcare professionals, students and their educators and parents. G騷a B疝int, M.D. FRCP Hungarian Academy of Sciences In this book, Dr. Solyom argues that human behavior is the etiology of the illness (climate change) that threatens the health of Mother Earth and our own survival. He rightly observes that the only effective treatment will be a global change in human behavior and provides the ethical framework that must drive meaningful change. This book distills a lifetime of experience in science, medicine, and ethics into a prescription for an ailing Earth. James W. Wright, M.D. Internal Medicine, Lynchburg, VA
