Reseñas

"...a broad overview of digital tools in health care, ranging from those that are currently used and available to those that are speculative. This book provides an overview and practical examples of digital health tools in primary care and subspecialties. It contains both broad overviews of concepts, like blockchain and metaverse, and specific applications for a variety of subspecialties and conditions. Its structure allows interested individuals to select the degree of detail desired, accomplishing its goals for a spectrum of entry levels.... a well-written overview of digital health tools spanning broad concepts and overviews to applications in specific specialties and conditions. Practicing physicians can likely find information relevant to them but will find much the volume to be outside their scope, their power to implement, or their ability to overcome prohibitive barriers.... Anyone curious about current and future transformation in healthcare delivery will find well-organized, comprehensive information on available and future digital tool applications." Review by Joseph Lane Wilson, MD, FAAFP (University of Missouri - Kansas City School of Medicine), ©Doody's Review Service, 2025.
