Reviews
The text features an engaging narrative style throughout...This volume may be particularly useful as a resource for administrators, clinicians, and others engaged in providing health care, especially in its admonition to carefully and critically consider the adoption of technologies in light of their potential, specific risks. * R.A. Brugna, CHOICE Connect, Vol. 59 No. 8 *
The promise of integrating digital technology and health care has inspired hope for transformative change, while raising important concerns around the privacy of our most personal information, and how the management of these data will be secured and governed. In this thoughtful, wise, and exceptionally grounded book, two of the field's most experienced experts provide a rigorous and comprehensive review of the challenges and opportunities, with a pragmatic focus on driving implementable change. * David A. Shaywitz, MD, PhD, Astounding HealthTech Advisory Services *
This book is an essential primer for anyone entering the digital health space. As new technologies continue to reshape medicine and health, we are all going to need to step back and assess where we are and where we are likely to be. In this volume, Perakslis and Stanley provide a starting point for getting smart on what is current and what is to come in digital health. * Michael Stebbins, PhD, Former Biotechnology lead for the Obama White House and President of Science Advisors, LLC *
