Abstract: Elsewhere in this issue (pp 1362 and 1368) two communications seeks to offer solutions for some of the problems associated with finding appropriate words to be used in communicating about health careers. Misunderstandings, confusion, and ill will sometimes develop among students, educators, and clinicians in various health occupations, as well as among spokesmen for different professional organizations. The source of these undesirable reactions can often be identified as lack of uniformity in terminology applied to the various occupational groups, and terminology applied to the functions performed by members of the groups. When a given term has different meanings for different people, communication disintegrates and problems multiply.

Abstract: The African Renaissance is now more than just an idea . . . In South Africa itself, ten years of democracy have ripened our discussions and deepened our insights. We are less starry‐eyed and euphoric, and more cautious; less optimistic but more hopeful. We are beginning to understand much better just how much South Africa is part of Africa, as we are beginning to understand that ‘Africa’ is much more than a geographical connotation. Africa is its mountains and rivers, its valleys and high places; its sweeping savannas and its dense forests; its rich soil and its intimidating deserts. But Africa is Africa mostly in her children wherever they may dwell: in the wisdom of her elders and the courage of her youth, the strength of her mothers and the dedication of her fathers. Being an African is not simply a question of sharing the land, it is sharing the fate of Africa.
