As the clock strikes 6am on 2nd September 2012
And as I prepare myself to attend the celebrations of the marriage engagement of a nephew (Indian marriages are celebrated right from the time they are arranged by their parents right through the actual marriage and many many times afterwards!), my thoughts linger on the myriads of innovations that have been made in the treatment and cure of human ailments. While being eternally grateful for these, I also wonder why there the same levels of ingenuity and resourcefulness have not been applied to the problems of the families and friends of patients who need to manage the situations that they find themselves in due to the illnesses of the patients? How do we incentivise innovators of medical-care systems to include such aspects?
And oh, thanks for those of you who have responded to my last post on what innovations have taken place in the fields of the science and art of interpreting and capitalising on human emotions and psychology. I will follow up on the suggested readings.
Wishing you a great week ahead.
