With smartphones in hand, we are no longer beholden to an impersonal and paternalistic medical system. Medicine has been digitized, Topol argues, now it's time for it to be democratized. Provocative and engrossing, The Patient Will See You Now is about all that lies ahead in a world of digital, democratic medicine, including fair discussion of a range of potential downsides, from privacy violations to intransigence on the part of the medical powers that be. Indeed, though many in the medical establishment will resist Topol's vision, he argues convincingly that medicine has been authoritarian for far too long, and that not changing the course of medicine will incur steep costs for us all. It's time to put the tools of medicine, and the power that goes with them, into the hands of the people"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Medicine $x Social aspects. $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a Medical informatics $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a Medical care $x Forecasting. 650 0 $a Physician and patient. 941 $a 2 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204075416.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110061336.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=701F4786989711E4B97AA57FDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWRInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
