This book delves into the status of the medical profession during World War I by analyzing psychological profiles of over 2500 U.S. military medical officers. The study discovered that many had lower-than-average intelligence scores compared to other army branches, despite extensive experience due to a less rigorous recruitment process within the Medical Department. The measured intelligence and performance of medical professionals also showed significant variation based on factors such as age, education, and specialization. Despite these findings, medical officers of higher rank tended to exhibit greater intelligence. The book highlights the need to improve medical school selection processes and professional training to enhance the overall quality and competence of the profession.
