Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

In "The Healing Algorithm," Dr. Anoop Mansoor presents a thorough examination of how ethical artificial intelligence (AI) can transform primary healthcare systems, especially in under-resourced and inequitable settings. Drawing on his experience as a physician and digital health advisor, he argues that AI should complement, not replace, human care, facilitating a shift from reactive treatment to proactive prevention.The book begins by highlighting the significant challenges facing primary healthcare, including underfunding, outdated systems, and clinician burnout. Dr. Mansoor posits that ethical AI, implemented transparently and contextually, can alleviate these issues, empowering healthcare providers and restoring trust in the system.He demystifies AI, portraying it as a collaborative tool capable of early risk detection, automating administrative tasks, and enhancing communication, all while keeping clinicians in control of decisions. The author emphasizes practical strategies for integrating AI into healthcare, such as starting with workflow observations and developing tools for all members of the care team, rather than just for physicians.Dr. Mansoor calls for a focus on preventive care through unified digital health records and predictive analytics. Examples include AI-driven maternal risk assessments and solutions for chronic disease management. He outlines a robust ethical framework built on privacy, fairness, explainability, human oversight, and community benefit, while addressing potential risks like racial bias and misuse of technology.Cautioning against a one-size-fits-all approach, he stresses the importance of local adaptation and inclusive design. Policymakers are urged to prioritize equity, access, and health worker empowerment.In conclusion, "The Healing Algorithm" serves as a compelling call to action for healthcare institutions and policymakers to rethink transformation efforts, emphasising that when used ethically, AI can enhance the human experience in healthcare. The book is essential reading for anyone involved in healthcare delivery, system reform, or digital health policy, advocating for a future that combines compassion with technology.
