Richards-Kortum (bioengineering, Rice University) offers a unique, engaging undergraduate text for highly motivated nonscience and science majors. The text examines the medical, regulatory, economic, and social constraints involved when biomedical devices and therapies are translated into clinical practice in developing and developed countries. Of special interest are profiles of real students who have participated in technology development internships in Africa. Profiles of research leaders give students insight into career paths. Three detailed case studies help students understand the economic realities of developing health systems. Homework problems involve mathematical and graphical analysis of real biomedical data, as well as writing about social implications of technology development; an ongoing project guides students through the design of a clinical trial. The lively art program offers high-interest b&w photos, anatomical illustrations, diagnostic images, maps, and charts. A companion web site includes multi-media materials for interactive classroom activities, plus lecture slides and audio files, links, and practice exams. The text can be used in introductory courses in bioengineering, global health, and epidemiology. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
