Strategy for the Future of
Health
Edited by: Renata G. Bushko, IOS Press 2009 (hardcover book)
Bringing together some of the strongest and most advanced voices in
the field of medicine and technology, Strategy for the Future of
Health examines the constantly changing horizon of ideas and
technologies which must be addressed by decision makers involved in
health-related resource allocation. Future progress and the provision
of long-term solutions in healthcare and medicine depend on the
decisions to invest in research, development and education today. This
book touches upon all aspects of the system and is rich and diverse
enough to provide direction in goal formation for those concerned in
making such decisions. Strategy for the Future of Health addresses
the unprecedented technological revolution in healthcare which is
manifesting itself in the convergence of molecular biology, computer
and medical science, electrical, mechanical, genetic and biomedical
engineering. Health professionals look towards a future where caring
machines will assist them in much of their work and consumers will
diagnose and treat themselves with self-health tools, personalized
designer drugs and automatic surgery bubbles. Such developments could
lead to both dramatic cost reduction and eventually to the delivery of
error-free healthcare |
The Strategy
for the Future of Health book is just like Renata brilliant, bold and
brave and has exponential power to pull you into the future.
Ray Kurzweil, Inventor, Author and
Futurist, Author of "The Singularity is Near"
"Renata has
mixed together a veritable cocktail of articles set to ignite the big
bang of Healthcare. The future of medicinal technology starts here".
Kevin Warwick, World's first
Cyborg
Like all technology, health technology can only
proceed so far by small incremental steps; every so often it needs
vision, lateral thinking, the willingness to step back and consider
radical new approaches. Renata Bushko's annual conference and
associated books are a tremendous focus for this crucial long-term
thinking. Aubrey de Grey,
Author of "Ending Aging"
"Among the noblest aspirations
of humanity are the development of advanced technologies for the
conquest of aging and medically preventable causes of death, and the
launching of a new era of personal choice in medicine. Strategy for
the Future of Health� gives us a solid push in the right direction."
Robert A. Freitas Jr., Author of "Nanomedicine" |
