The book "The Primary Health Care Approach and Restructuring of the MB ChB" by Nadia Hartman offers a comprehensive analysis of the developments in the South African health and education system following the democratic elections of 1994. It highlights the challenges and opportunities arising from the need to integrate social responsibility into medical education. By examining the collaboration among various stakeholders, the importance of accountability and willingness to cooperate is emphasized. The book discusses the impact of international trends in medical and higher education on the development of the Primary Health Care (PHC) approach and the associated changes in the curriculum. Hartman employs Bourdieu's theory of power and practice to explain the discrepancies between the goals of medical education and the prevailing biomedical culture within the faculty and the health system. This critical engagement with medical education is of great significance for professionals and students in the fields of medicine and nursing.
