PERSONLIG MEDICIN beskriver filosofiske og tværvidenskabelige perspektiver på en vigtig sundhedsvidenskabelig tendens. I helemedicinens historie har man drømt om at skræddersy behandlingen til den enkelte patient, og med den hastige udvikling af genetiskdiagnostik og terapi, kunstig intelligens og monitoreringsteknologi er der nu udsigt til, at drømmen kan blive til virkelighed.Der savnes dog en debat om de værdimæssige spørgsmål, som udviklingen rejser. Hvad er fælles, personligt og privat på sundhedsområdet, og hvordan skal midlerne fordeles og den faglige indsats prioriteres i et sundhedsvæsen, hvor den enkelte patientskal sættes i centrum? Og hvilke krav stiller udviklingen til fremtidens sundhedsprofessionelle – og til dem, som skal uddanne dem?I 10 kapitler stiller bogens forfattere skarpt på disse spørgsmål og præsenterer samtidig den nyeste viden om personlig medicin i bred forstand med fokus på de samfundsmæssige, etiske og videnskabsteoretiske aspekter. Bogen kan bruges som lærebog påde sundhedsfaglige uddannelser, men også inden for samfundsvidenskab og humaniora, hvor man beskæftiger sig med forholdetmellem sundhed, samfund, værdier og forestillinger.PERSONLIG MEDICIN er forskningsbaseret og skrevet af en bred vifte af eksperter og forskere. Bidragyderne tæller filosoffer, læger,jurister, videnskabshistorikere, bioanalytikere og teologer, som hver især sætter de medicinske teknologier og praksisser ind i enstørre sammenhæng.Bogen udkommer i bogserien SUNDHED, MENNESKE, SAMFUND, redigeret af professor Klaus Lindgaard Høyer (KU) og lektor Lotte Huniche (SDU), som samler Munksgaards peer review-udgivelser inden for human- og samfundsvidenskabelig sundhedsforskning.
