Yet the remedy that economists and policy makers continue to miss is also miraculously simple. Good medicine takes more than amazing technology; it takes time--time to respond to bodies as well as data, time to arrive at the right diagnosis and the right treatment. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Sweet knows this because she has learned and lived it over the course of her remarkable career. Here she relates unforgettable stories of the teachers, doctors, nurses, and patients through whom she discovered the practice of Slow Medicine, in which she has been both pioneer and inspiration. Medicine, she helps us to see, is a craft and an art as well as a science. It is relational, personal, even spiritual. To do it well requires a hard-won wisdom that no algorithm can replace--that brings together \"fast\" and \"slow\" in a truly effective, efficient, sustainable, and humane way of healing.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Slow Medicine: The Way to Healing | Victoria Sweet | Paperback | 9780399573316 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks H 1748768","offer_id":48856319099032,"sku":"1748768","price":11.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/81zYV4FieOL.jpg?v=1775581870","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/slow-medicine-the-way-to-healing","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
