Synopsis "¿Conoce usted a San Martín? (in Spanish)"

«Dentro de mis lecturas; ocupa un lugar preferencial el general don José de San Martín; con quien durante largos años hemos estado dialogando a través de diversos libros; folletos y artículos. El análisis cuidadoso de su vida; a mi entender; demuestra que la gran mayoría de los argentinos «civiles y militares» no la conoce en profundidad y; por el contrario; en infinidad de ocasiones San Martín ha sido y es utilizado para defender intereses bastardos; en especial a través de comparaciones y paralelismos; tratando de justificar desviaciones perniciosas de nuestro pasado lejano y reciente. Estuve recluido durante tres semanas; rodeado de libros y apuntes relacionados con la Gesta Sanmartiniana; varias veces leídos anter iormente. Como resultado de aquella ardua tarea nacieron estas páginas; que sentí obligatorias por los momentos difíciles que hoy le toca vivir a nuestro país. Solo espero que contribuya a que los argentinos encontremos el camino que nos lleve a ubicarnos correcta mente; para que no seamos engañados como tantas veces». René G. Favaloro

René G. Favaloro was born in La Plata on July 12, 1923, and died in Buenos Aires on July 29, 2000, at the age of 77. He graduated as a doctor from the National University of La Plata in 1949. He lived in the United States for ten years where he developed the fundamental work of his career: direct myocardial revascularization surgery (bypass). He received national and international distinctions, including seven awards from the National Academy of Medicine and the 1979 John Scott Award, given by the city of Philadelphia, USA. In 1980, the University of Tel Aviv, Israel, created the Chair of Cardiovascular Surgery named after him. He was deserving of other awards, including: the one from the Conchita Rábago de Jiménez Díaz Foundation (Madrid, 1982); the Master of Argentine Medicine Award (1986); the Cleveland Clinic Foundation Award (1987); The Gairdner Foundation International Award (Toronto, 1987); the René Leriche Award from the International Society of Surgery (1989); the Gifted Teacher Award from the American College of Cardiology (1992); the Golden Plate Award from the American Academy of Achievement (1993); and the Prince Mahidol Award, granted by His Majesty the King of Thailand (1999). He published Surgical Treatment on Coronary Arteriosclerosis (1970), Memories of a Rural Doctor (1980, now being reissued), Do You Know San Martín? (1987), The Memory of Guayaquil (1991), From La Pampa to the United States (1992), and Don Pedro and Education (1994), as well as more than three hundred papers in his specialty. His participation in various commissions demonstrated his social commitment to his homeland. In 1983 he joined the Council for the Consolidation of Democracy, and in 1990 the Commission for the Ethical Recovery of Society and the State. He was a member of the National Program for the Democratization of Culture in 1996, and that same year, co-chairman of the Argentine Council against Racism and Ethnic and Religious Discrimination.

Gran trabajo del eminente Dr. René Favaloro, muy bien investigado resaltando los valores eticos y morales de nuestro Libertador General don José de San Martín, con una óptica desprovista de ideologías con una escueta opinión personal del autor, que realza la labor documental de investigación. Lo recomiendo para jóvenes que poco conocen de los escabrosos tiempos de la liberación del dominio colonial español.
