MODERN ISSUES OF MEDICINE AND MANAGEMENT
From the legendary Medea to the wise Geomedi
Famous Medea - known as the daughter of the king of historical Colchis (Georgia, from the XIV century BC), according to many well-known sources of world medical thought, is referred as the mother of medicine - the first source of medical scientific discipline and widely used term "medicine". In modern times, for example as well, the Teaching University Geomedi (Georgia, to the beginning of the III millennium) appeared as a visible manifestation of the development of medicine, which, together with the unique experimental healthcare research , gave great impetus to reforming the management systems of former socialist countries in Europe and Asia by the highly qualified requirements to the unperfect institute of so called "Chief Physician" and the really best Harvard experience in reducing managerial costs. The face of the University Geomedi's scientific work is the Journal "Current Issues of Medicine and Management", which, with usual attitude and principledness, ensures the support of especially talented scientists and a reasonable integration of the scientific research with the educational system.
