NOTICE
This is the report of a project undertaken with the approval of the
Governing Board of the National Research Council, whose members are
drawn from the Councils of the National Academy of Sciences, the
National Academy of Engineering, and the' Institute of Medicine. The
members of the committee appointed to conduct the project and prepare
the report were selected for recognized competence and with due
consideration for the balance of disciplines appropriate to the
project.
This report has been reviewed by a group other than the authors
according to procedures approved by a Report Review Committee con-
sisting of members of the National Academy of Sciences, the National
Academy of Engineering, and the Institute of Medicine.
Supported by a contract from the Office of Science and Technology
Policy, Executive Office of the President of the United States.
The Institute of Medicine was chartered in 1970 by the National Academy
of Sciences to enlist distinguished members of medical and other pro-
fessions for the examination of policy matters pertaining to the health
of the public. In this, the Institute acts under both the Academy's
1863 Congressional charter responsibility to be an advisor to the
Federal Government, and its own initiative in identifying issues of
medical care, research, and education.
