Book Synopsis Neurogenetic Diagnoses, the Power of Hope, and the Limits of Today’s Medicine by : Carole H. Browner
Book excerpt: Amid intense debate over the consequences of decoding the human genome and the impact of such technology on our lives, these lucid, richly-textured, jargon-free case studies explore the diverse meanings and impacts of genetic diagnoses for patients enduring currently incurable, ultimately fatal neurodegenerative diseases -- and for their family caregivers and clinicians.
