    About this ebook

    This is the story of a great musician and teacher, Griffith Jones, as told by two of his grandchildren, Thomas Jones and Carol Ann Murray. It is the tale of the son of a Welsh miner who immigrated to the United States when he was six years old and then became one of the greatest choral conductors of his time. He conducted choral groups all over Ohio and Pennsylvania and received the coveted Eisteddfod Prize in Wales in 1934. The authors describe the musical talents Griffith passed on to his son and three daughters and also the three or four generations that followed. This inheritance of a Welsh talent of music, teaching, and stubbornness is the inspiration that led to this book.

    Author

    Thomas C. Jones

    The authors of this book experienced family medicine and patient care in the 1960s and 1970s. They watched as the corporate world took over health care. They saw the financial benefit to doctors, to hospitals, and to the pharmaceutical industry replace the process of patient care by a concerned family doctor. Here, they detail the problem as it emerged and offer possible solutions. We also issue a request to patients and future patients alike—please help us return to real patient care. Thomas C. Jones, MD, graduated from Case Western Reserve Medical School. He became professor and chief of the Division of International Medicine at Cornell University Medical College (1972–1985). He has authored three books and over two hundred research articles. Betsy M. Chalfin, MEd, received a master’s degree from the University of Illinois. She was program coordinator for the Division of International Medicine at Cornell, then academic administrator in the Department of Neurology at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine and Beth Israel Medical Center, New York. She was copyeditor of the Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases.
