AN AMERICAN LOOKS AT EUROPEAN CHILD HEALTH

Martha M. Eliot M.D.1

1 Harvard School of Public Health, 55 Shattuck Street Boston, Massachusetts 02115

In View of the ferment today in the United States in our search for new ways and means to organize the delivery of high quality, comprehensive health care to children and families on a community basis, Dr. Miller's report of a survey of "Health Services for Children in some Western European Countries: Their Significance for the United States," published elsewhere in this issue of Pediatrics1 is of timely interest. Pediatricians and others responsible for the delivery of maternity care and health care to children and families, and especially those involved in the planning and administration of programs (public or voluntary) through which combined and comprehensive preventive and curative services are delivered to families on a community basis, will find this report of more than passing interest and should also give their attention to the more detailed appendix material that will be available with reprints.
