序文
第1巻『講義録 医学英語I』に続いて,第2巻の刊行にあたりどのような教材が学習者に「医学英語」の特徴を伝えられるか,また「医学英語」を担当する先生方のニーズに応えられるか考えました。「医学英語」とは一般の英語と何が違うのでしょう。語彙が違うことは第1巻の専門用語で学びましたが,その他には? 表現方法や科学的な論文の構成も一般の読みものとはかなり違います。学習者にはもちろん,医学を専門としない英語教師,あるいは逆に専門の英語表現に触れる機会が多く一般的な表現に馴染みの少ない医師にとっても必要な情報を盛り込んだ教材とはどのようなものか,いろいろ考えた末,一般の英語(general English)と科学/医学で使われる英語(scientific English)の違いを示すことをこの本の特徴にしました。したがって,この第2巻の前半の章はまず専門書ではなくTIME誌やVoice of America(VOA),National Public Radio(NPR)等の一般的なもののなかから医学に関連する題材を採り上げて,そのなかで科学英語との相違点を紹介し,後半の章では専門の論文,症例報告のなかで一般英語との相違点を示すように構成しました。
Chapters 1〜3:一般誌の医学関連記事を読む
Chapters 4〜6:一般の医学関連ニュースを聴き取る
Chapters 7〜10:医学論文の読み方
Chapters 11〜12:症例を読む
各章には,学習者の理解を深めるために詳細な説明を加え,また学習を確実なものにするために練習問題をたくさん用意しました。しかし各章の練習問題は必ずしも全てをやっていただく必要はなく,このテキスト を使用されるそれぞれの状況によって取捨選択していただければ結構です。
後半の医学英語の専門に入って最初の医学論文の読み方の章では数ページにわたる英語の論文のポイントをごく短時間で把握できる方法がわかり,さらにそれが身につくよう練習問題が用意されています。学習者の皆さんにとってはもちろんですが,教師,医師の専門家にも大いに役立つと確信しています。この本で一般英語と科学英語/医学英語の違いを認識し,それが医学英語の理解をより深める一助になることを心から願っています。
最後に,本書の発刊にあたり,辛抱強く見守り,編集・校正に多大な御尽力を頂きました日本医学英語教育学会事務局の江口潤司様に心より御礼申し上げます。

To the Student
One purpose of this book is to help you reach your goals. Another is to help you keep up with new diseases, new treatments, and new techniques after you graduate. Some medical universities tell the students, “Most of what you learn in med school will be old by the time you graduate.”
After graduation, you will need all the skills you master in med school today plus good communication skills to use in search of clinical evidence (臨床的根拠の探求) tomorrow. For that reason, this book asks brave questions. For example, in heart patients, do statins work for everybody, or is surgery better? Is aspirin better? As the first-step in managing high blood pressure, are the new expensive drugs really better than a diuretic? In students with McArdleユs disease, how can muscle injury be reduced; how can kidney failure be prevented?
To get the most out of this book:
1. Ask questions,
2. Write notes in the margin,
3. Underline key points,
4. Look for opposite ideas,
5. Look for relationships and patterns,
6. Number the points mentioned in a series.
With these skills, you can think in a more analytical way and interpret the data more quickly. Knowing the four sections of the medical research paper, you can become an expert on what to look for and where to find it in ANY research paper. This will give you an edge in your search for clinical evidence and put you more in command of the information you are reading.
