Explains the term schism as used in public health and medicine. The treatise argues that schism diminishes the combined scientific, organizational and institutional potentials of the two fields. Proposes that concerns for public health should be reintegrated into the clinical departments of medical schools where they once flourished. Reviews the reasons behind the neglect of public health, the institutionalization of the schism and the evolution of ideas for improving public health.
