An entertaining medical thriller. Provides a balance of the possible pros and cons of (inevitable) future use of mobile tech in monitoring/managing each individual's health care. I am not sure if a (truly) heuristic algorithm is possible at this point in time but in a decade or so.... When that time comes, I hope data security is much more stable and robust then it is now. Further, that rules/safeguards would be in place so that the answer to questions like "Who watches the watchers?" is not "Nobody." nor "They're self-policing." The protagonist, Dr. George Wilson, is a believable character. He isn't super-human or a "Mr. Know-It-All" But, for a guy who seems to be a decent judge of character, the wool gets pulled over his eyes with seeming ease by good-looking women who only intend to manipulate him.
