In The Decision Tree, Thomas Goetz proposes a new strategy
for thinking about health, one that applies cutting-edge
technology and sound science to put us at the center of the
equation. An individual’s Decision Tree begins with
genomics, where $400 and a test tube of spit provides a peek
at how your DNA influences your health. It taps
self-monitoring and collaborative health tools, where iPhone
applications and next-generation monitoring gadgets can help
individuals successfully change their behavior, once and for
all. And it turns to new screening techniques that detect
diseases like cancer and diabetes far earlier and with far
better prospects for our health. Full of thoughtful,
groundbreaking reporting on the impact personalized medicine
will have on the average patient, The Decision Tree will
show you how to take advantage of this new frontier in
health care.
