Recommendation
In the future, doctors may use “digital twins” – sophisticated computer simulations of your body – to provide personalized medical care. Your digital twin would react as you would to a drug or other treatment. It could also alert your doctor to health issues that might trouble you in the future. Professors Peter Coveney and Roger Highfield illuminate the history and future of biological simulations. Though they target a general audience, their citations of mathematics, biology and computer science make their book a challenging, stimulating read for laypeople.
