2014
Abstract
In interwar Czechoslovakia health care, an increased attention paid to the new ideas of scientific management (Taylorism), work rationalization and standardization led to the establishment of the Comission for Rationalization and Standardization in Medicine, Veterinary Medicine and Pharmacy (RANOK) within the Department of Natural Science and Medicine of the Masaryk Academy of Work. Within RANOK, a group for pharmacy worked between 1928 and 1932.
The second part of the paper deals with the work results, relative failure and importance of the group for pharmacy.
