[Lyautey and medicine]

Medicine played a main role during Lyautey own life. He had recourse to it at many times when he was a young boy and suffering of a lot of bad illness all along his life, chiefly in Africa. Maybe it's the reason which allows the strong interest of Lyautey for medicine and doctors? Then medicine is also, according to Lyautey's mind, the most means for conquest and pacification. He proceeded on that way, especially in Marocco which became, owing to him, a modern and peaceful kingdom.
