Abstract:
Family medicine remains an integral part of the GP's responsibilities. To a large extent, the doctor in general practice still provides care not solely to individual patients, but often to several members of the same family. Functions and obligations, together with the dynamics and problems, of the family are determinants of the health and illnesses of family members, and the GP needs to understand and be aware of this. Also of value to the physician providing primary medical care is a knowledge of the various different types--possibly even pathogenic--of family.
