The bibliography includes documents and studies considered by the compilers to be landmarks in the sense that they appear to have influenced the health manpower legislation or policy of the Federal government. The emphasis is on the 1956 to 1974 period. Five sections, arranged chronologically, list: significant legislation, 1956 to August 1973; Presidential statements, from Truman to Nixon; other statements, mostly by secretaries and assistant secretaries of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, from 1953 to 1973; significant reports issued by the Federal government, from 1948 to 1973; and other reports, from 1910 (The "Flexner Report") to 1974. An appendix lists bibliographies on health manpower which include references to "other-than-landmark" works in the field. Authors' names are indexed. (JR)
