This paper is developed from the symposium, "The New Image of Pharmacists in Medical Practice" held at the last study meeting of this association. Experience is a human behavior in the interaction between man and world (man is a part of the world), so that it has in all cases the interactive structure of knowledge (self-conscious and objective) and act, and also the nature of motion between the mover (agent) and the moved (patient). The meaning of this motion includes growing and changing. Invention is a creative modification of the world (man) by discovery of the nature of the world (man). At all times, medical practice is an experimental and inventive treatment of man by medical practitioners (agents-physicians, pharmacists, nurses, and so on) for man as patient. The experimental knowledge and act are case by case always imperfect, and the inventive (creative) treatment of man for man carries in itself responsibility, that is to say ethics. The medical practitioners must each and all be specialists who recognize correctly such essences of medical practice. Their teamwork in medical practice will be realized only by mutual understanding of these essences, and in addition, in the future, teamwork will become increasingly necessary. So, from now on, pharmacists must be required especially to be more active, more self-conscious, and more responsible for their own share of medical practice.
