[How the history of pharmacy should be taught to pharmacy students].

This is a question which by and of every lecturer of the history of pharmacy, especially when there is plenty of information about the subject, and very little "lecture time" available. A lecturer should also remember, that pharmaceutical faculties aim to produce a good expert on medicine, not "an historian of pharmacy". But it is also desirable for pharmacists - experts on medicines - to obtain an elementary body of information about who contributed to shaping the practice of medicine, its variety and ...its kindness. If such aims were achieved - it would be a great score. And if this basic knowledge leads and encourages on independent exploration of the history of pharmacy - we can put it down as due to the success of this first lecturer.

[Reflections].

The author remembers the time, when in the gloomy years of Stalin's regime after the II World War, the lectures of the history of medicine were eliminated in the Medical Academies in Poland. A similar thing happened to the history of pharmacy in pharmaceutical faculties, which is why the author is now asking if lectures on the history of pharmacy or medicine were really necessary? After all, many outstanding doctors and pharmacists graduated at that time? And his answer is that it was a great educational mistake. The history of medicine and the history of pharmacy carry humanitarian lessons of great importance to doctors and pharmacists. History demonstrates that they, off all professions should understand the suffering and pain of a sick patient. Knowledge of the history of medicine and the history of pharmacy can only help.

[Portraits of people great and famous and not so famous. Is their likeness really truly handed down for posterity?].

Basing on an extensive illustrative materials, a claim is made that portraits of people who entered the history of medicine, though imprinted firmly in our memory are not necessarily a reflection of their real likeness. This is evident in very diverse presentations of the same people by different artists as well as in an appearance of their first portraits in some cases several centuries after their deaths. Only the portraits and the sculptures made during their lifetime are regarded as credible by the author.
