“The new theory is that most of today’s human illness, the infectious ones aside, are multifactor in nature, caused by two great arrays of causative mechanism: the influence of things in the environment; and one’s personal lifestyle. For medicine to become effective in dealing with such diseases, it has become common belief that the environment will have to be changed, and personal ways of living also have to be transformed, and radically.” - Thomas, 1978
