Abstract
Through the term 'family practice' does not embrace all that I will be discussing I believe it is the most appropriate and meaningful term. The family is the basic unit of over 4 000 societies in this world and while 'every society creates its own casualties' the family is potentially the most powerful element in any society, passing stable value systems from one generation to the next and therefore its care is of paramount importance. It should be added that in some under-doctored areas the family practitioner may not be a doctor.
