Health, health care and healing: introduction to the Festschrift for Professor Ken Donald

Abstract

THE CITATION for Ken Donald?s recent and well deserved award of an Order of Australia reads ?For service to medicine as an academic and administrator, particularly as a contributor in the fields of pathology and community health?. A true enough statement but hardly sufficient for such a diverse career and lifetime of contributions in so many different fields. In this issue of Australian Health Review we include a collection of papers to honour Professor Donald.
