Handbook of Personalized Medicine

The development of the Handbook of Personalized Medicine is timely. Medicine and health have evidently moved on and continue to progress and develop at a pace. Gone are the days, perhaps, when medical treatments for patients were developed and designed as a ‘one size fits all’ solution. Much more is now understood about individual differences in the way in which diseases develop and specifically also about individual differences in response to treatments. … This book represents an exceedingly comprehensive and detailed account of these developments, with the aim of integrating certain of these approaches into every day clinical practice. … its structure is clearly laid out, contributing authors clearly stated and the periodic use of comprehensive tables, graphs, and colour figures undoubtedly improve its understanding. … This book has been a massive undertaking to produce and portrays a journey from the most basic considerations through to the medical practice of the future.”—David Fishwick, Occupational Medicine Journal
