(* bug-buster *)

	Does any one have a reference to a study (or studies) outlining how
medical professionals go about diagnosing an illness in terms of strategies
they apply to the problem?  I'm looking for something along the lines of the
book "How to Solve Problems" by Winograd (?), where different methods of
problem solving were presented as way of teaching the reader to develop a
greater skill in solving problems.
	My wife who is attending Veterinary School here at Purdue is
interested in such a reference to assist her in developing a strong
diagnostic skill.  Any of you expert system designers know of such a study?
