[Communicate? Transmission?].
Through our own experience and that of others authors - surgeons, mathematicians, philosophers - we consider methods, reality ant future of communication and transmission in plastic and reconstructive surgery. Open to criticism, communication is always revocable; registered in the future, transmission is not so easy to challenge. Subjects and means of communication and transmission - language and pictures - are discussed, provided that to allow citicism and to be closed to self-love. A matter of course is that truth must rise above self-vanity. Communication is devoted to all those who take care of patients, but also to patients themselves and their relatives: the best wisdom must be used here and, too, with medias where in communication must follow the simplest morality: don't act for yourself but for others. We have to teach that we must be impassioned of strictness, and accept to waste needfull time for research as for practice. We communicate with all who wish for it, but we transmit only to those we guess able to follow right and prudent practice. Spirit of surgery must overcome technical tips.
