BOOK EXCERPT:
The Connection traces the remarkable relationship between Johns Hopkins Hospital and Vanderbilt Hospital, beginning in 1919 and continuing to this day. More than 400 faculty members, including five deans/vice chancellors of medical affairs and at least twenty department chairs, moved from Hopkins to Vanderbilt and brought the cutting-edge concepts of Hopkins with them. These methods and approaches transformed Vanderbilt and indeed the American medical center into the modern institution it is today. Friesinger tracks the effects on departments, administration, and the practice of medicine itself while bringing to life many of the distinguished—and colorful—individuals who played parts.
