Tomáš Zima - Lékař zdravého rozumu – Januš Jan (2021)

Some know Tomáš Zima as a doctor, others remember him as the dean of the 1st Faculty of Medicine, Charles University, but he is perhaps best known as the acting rector of Charles University; some golf enthusiasts know Tomáš Zima as a golfer, and he is also recognized in culinary circles. In reality, however, Professor Tomáš Zima is just one man - a physician, a top scientist, a successful manager, an excellent organizer, and a person with many different hobbies and interests. What was his path to medicine? How does he manage a research institute, a medical faculty, and the entire Charles University? What reputation does our oldest and largest university have in the world, and what role does the current rector play in the integration of European education? And on top of all that - what is Tomáš Zima like in private? How do his teachers, colleagues, family, and friends see him? What does he love and what annoys him? What would he like to change? The book The Doctor of Common Sense answers these and many other questions. It does not aspire to be a commemorative monument and was created almost 'in a rush'; Tomáš Zima is, after all, still on the move at fifty-five, ready to continue influencing and commenting on events not only in his field, medicine, but also in society, all around us, and to push things effectively forward.
