Abstract
Lists of common problems in general practice are used to substantiate our experience of its content, to guide vocational training and, hopefully, to bring about undergraduate curriculum revision. The validity of these as descriptions of the practice population and their usefulness as descriptions of the community (Weingarten's' "epidemiological community") is usually untested.
