Edited by Jerald A. Burton and Patricia G. Burton
 
A Proven Experiment looks at the history of the UMKC School of Medicine through the eyes of its founders, its faculty and graduates. The editors and each of the authors of this book have a unique vantage point from which to view the institution. But this book is more than a compilation of memories and history. It also acknowledges the challenges that confront health care today and the need to adapt for the future. As Lynda Payne says so well in the Foreword, “This book celebrates the heritage of their profession and shows that innovation continues to be in our blood.”
