For the health policy wonk, a few thoughts on longer readings for the solstice weekend.
“One Community Took a Radical Approach to Fighting Addiction. It’s Working.” (Wernau, Wall Street Journal, June 15)
Multifaceted problems require multi-faceted solutions.“Why do doctors write?” (Offri, New Yorker, June 7)
An appreciation of a generation of physicians who honored their patients in prose.“The catch in catching cancer early” (Mukherjee, New Yorker, June 15)
An update on the fifteenth anniversary of The Emperor’s Malady, focused on Grail and using cell-free DNA to detect and monitor cancer.“How should we respond to people “doing their own research?” (Panthegani, Your Local Epidemiologist, June 18).
Thoughtful approach to offering information to those who distrust expertise, and a reminder that humans tend to overestimate their skill as they are on the learning curve.
