Medical Genetics

We have sorely missed good books on genetic counseling to supplant Sheldon C. Reed's Counseling in Medical Genetics (1963). Now they are appearing one after another: Genetic Counseling, by Walter Fuhrmann and Freidrich Vogel (1969), the long awaited book, Genetic Prognosis and Counseling edited by Arno G. Motulsky, and the book under review. The quickening interest in medical genetics has led to an increase in the need for accurate genetic counseling by the clinician, the patient, and in the formation of public health policy.

Impact Of Technology

A rapid development in health care delivery has been the increasing use of technology. Technology will continue to transform medical practice and all health care workers are involved with technology by accident or design. This has resulted in technology dominating many health policy decisions (4).
