Additional information

Editor,Journal of the American Medical Association. Presented as the Zlinkoff Honor Lecture at the annual meeting of the Society for Research and Education in Primary Care Internal Medicine, San Diego, California, April 30, 1987

The reader is advised that the author is working from experience so he will refer often toJAMA and the nine AMA specialty journals. What he says about those journals is potentially equally applicable to medical journals in general. So any time the name ofJAMA is used the reader may substitute the name of his or her own favorite journal (so long as it qualifies) so as to make the presentation immune from any allegations of excessive bias.
