I think
that these sentences from the Ernest Hemingway's "In Another
Country," show the distrust the soldiers had toward new technology and
medicine in the <span>postwar
era:</span>
“The
major came very regularly to the hospital. I do not think he ever missed a day, <span>although
I am sure he did not believe in the machines. There was a time when none of </span><span>us
believed in the machines, and one day the major said it was all nonsense. The </span><span>machines
were new then and it was we who were to prove them. It was an idiotic idea, </span><span>he said,
"a theory like another".”</span>
