摘要：If these words reflect the tremendous influence of Osler on his medical contemporaries, times change, and Sir Geoffrey Keynes, himself a physician, now writes: But the generation that knew Osler is quickly passing, and with it must pass the memory of his living presence. His text-book of Medicine, although it can remain a pattern of style in medical writing, like every other text-book, cannot, with the advances of the Art and Science, be for long an active influence. Osler's memory cannot, indeed, be served better than by a reading, or a re-reading, of his addresses and essays.
