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"
