Eric J. Topol, M.D., is professor of innovative medicine and the director of the Scripps Translational Science Institute in La Jolla, California. Trained at Johns Hopkins University, he conducted one of the first trials of a genetically engineered protein for treating heart attacks, and was the founder of the world’s first cardiovascular gene bank at the Cleveland Clinic. He lives with his family in La Jolla, California.
What if your cell phone could detect cancer cells circulating in your blood or warn you of an imminent heart attack? Mobile wireless digital devices, including smartphones and tablets with seemingly limitless functionality, have brought about radical changes in our lives, providing hyper-connectivity to social networks and cloud computing. But the digital world has hardly pierced the medical cocoon.
Until now. Beyond reading email and surfing the Web, we will soon be checking our vital signs on our phone. We can already continuously monitor our heart rhythm, blood glucose levels, and brain waves while we sleep. Miniature ultrasound imaging devices are replacing the icon of medicine—the stethoscope. DNA sequencing, Facebook, and the Watson supercomputer have already saved lives. For the first time we can capture all the relevant data from each individual to enable precision therapy, prevent major side effects of medications, and ultimately to prevent many diseases from ever occurring. And yet many of these digital medical innovations lie unused because of the medical community’s profound resistance to change. In The Creative Destruction of Medicine, Eric Topol—one of the nation’s top physicians and a leading voice on the digital revolution in medicine—argues that radical innovation and a true democratization of medical care are within reach, but only if we consumers demand it. We can force medicine to undergo its biggest shakeup in history. This book shows us the stakes—and how to win them.
没意思的一本书,对现代技术过于yy了,不推荐,浪费时间,讲基因那块说到基因技术都是没有流行起来的测序技术,说的都是个例,不具备普遍意义
评分现代数字技术深刻改变医疗,震撼,又充满未知、冲突、欺骗。物联网、智能设备和数据技术要颠覆的可不止是医疗。对书中印象最深的是远程医疗手术操作,真是挺颠覆现在的医疗手段,希望医疗越来越发达,爸爸已不在了,没有如果,曾经也是美国几大最好癌症诊疗医院询问遍了,最后...
评分刚开始以为是一本抱怨的赶时髦书——“大数据”,读完发现有效信息不少,翻译不错。 基因测序后,甚至连支架后出现血凝块的CYP2C19基因的相类性都知道(GWAS项目,Genome-wide association study),记得性感女星叫茱莉的,就是测基因知道自己有宫颈癌乳腺癌概率。 癌症基因组...
评分拥抱数字创新 颠覆传统医疗 作者:游苏宁 随着岁月的更迭,又到了辞旧迎新的农历新年。按照传统说法,辞别金蛇狂舞之冬,必将喜迎万马奔腾之春。就在归心似箭的人们为了举家团圆而卷入拥挤不堪、一票难求的36亿人次的全民大迁徙洪流之中时,习惯于几乎所有周末都浪迹天涯的笔...
评分从医学的角度讲述科技创新的影响。虽然有很多医学专有名词不是很能读懂,但是不可否认书的价值。 作者揭露了医学界的弊病以及医学的现状,尤其是由于医疗事故的死亡人数超过交通事故和乳腺癌死亡人数总和,警醒世人。未来各行各业都要与科技联系起来,用科技去推动发展。
当作一本case study的书看了,至于未来真的怎么走,医疗的东西有太多regulatory的东西在里头,不仅仅是极客或者自由市场能够左右的
评分A good picture is drawn, but the devil is in the details.

评分书很好 Mass medicine vs. personalized medicine 这是一场早晚要到来的革命 技术是它的必要条件 但绝非充分条件 我想大概要等到生在长在网络时代的人们掌握话语权 革命才能成功
