    The Authors have studied the salient features of Community Medicine from three different aspects: 1) the theory of primary health care, as defined by the WHO, as a fundamental element in Community Medicine; 2) the characteristics it assumes in health planning in developing countries, where it is designed to meet the special local requirements; 3) the situation in Italy, where local medical care is regarded as a favoured sphere for projects, but where different planning and policies are required. From this study we have selected a number of ideas gathered during our experience in developing countries, which are suitable for adoption in Italy: the setting up of health care systems on global, capillary and participatory lines, aimed jointly at prevention, diagnosis and therapy: the use of scientific methodologies which are both thorough and accurate, and which are available for user countries; adequate personnel training; coordination between medical care and the working world; all this with the aim of enabling each and every individual to lead a socially and economically productive life, by ensuring the greatest possible physical and mental well being
