Description
It has been a question that has been asked ever since Alan Turing came up with the first machines that would become known as “computers” in the early 1950s. In Quantum Care: A Deep Dive into AI for Health Delivery and Research, Rohit Mahajan not only answers the question of “can machines think?” but he takes an incisive and engaging look into how they think. All with an eye turned toward how AI is leading to a revolution in the healthcare industry that is likely to prove as profound as the introduction of antibiotics or the discovery of x-rays.
We are already interacting with deep machine learning on a regular basis.
Have you heard yourself or your friends ever ask the question, “how does Facebook, Google, Amazon, etc., show me ads for things that I was only just thinking about buying?" These large tech companies do not have hidden cameras in your homes or secret drones following you around. What they do have is advanced deep learning algorithms, and this is how Amazon gets to intuitively “decide” what you want to buy next, or Netflix “knows" what you want to watch.
At its core AI is about learning by being able to interpret massive amounts of data and then, very quickly, being able to make extraordinarily accurate predictions based on the same. As you might imagine, that has some remarkable implications for the delivery of medicine and healthcare.
In Quantum Care: A Deep Dive into AI for Health Delivery and Research, Rohit takes us on his personal journey leveraging his real-world experiences and thoughtful insights to help us grasp how AI is becoming ubiquitous in our everyday lives and how AI and machine learning will in the very near future change the very nature of the healthcare industry.
The book also provides a roadmap for investors and startups looking to leverage the exponential growth opportunities being made available by AI healthcare solutions, particularly in the areas of drug discovery and medical research.
With an easy-to-read style, Rohit makes once science fiction concepts such as quantum computers and digital replicas of human organs understandable so that healthcare professionals and medical consumers alike can come not to fear AI, but embrace it and feel excited about this new world we are all soon to find ourselves in.

“Quantum Care" is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of AI, healthcare, and the pharmaceutical industry. The author does an excellent job of explaining complex concepts in a way that is accessible to a wide range of readers, from those new to the field to those who are already familiar with AI techniques. Whether you are a researcher, scientist, or simply interested in learning about the future of drug discovery, this book is a valuable resource.
One particularly interesting aspect of the book is its discussion of the role of quantum computing in drug discovery. The author explains how quantum computing can be used to simulate complex molecular systems, which can help in the design and discovery of new drugs. The potential of quantum computing to speed up calculations and provide more accurate predictions makes it a very exciting area of research.

I read this book as Non coder, but after reading this, I came to know how AI is produced and produces in its turn a new environment in which we work and live. It covers an amazing variety of topics and it does so in a simple and clear manner, and it is useful for practitioners as well as for newcomers to the field. I really enjoyed after reading this book and I really enjoyed reading this book and recommend to others.

Quantum Care - A Deep Dive into AI for Health Delivery and Research by Rohit Mahajan
A short and readable introduction to Artificial Intelligence and Quantum Computing, and the implications for the USA health care industry, which includes pharmaceutical and insurance businesses. Entrepreneur Rohit Mahajan explains the basics of Artificial Intelligence and the concepts of Quantum Computing, and predicts how the entire health care industry will change positively and drastically in the next decade due to these technologies. He describes new efficiencies in pre-treatment, diagnosis and treatment, integrating relevant research and other information, continuous patient monitoring, and fast-tracking new drug development. An excellent primer for all health care professionals to raise awareness of fast-arriving technology changes that are coming, and that are changing the entire health care industry!
Most of the book (Chapters 1 to 7) is technically fascinating, and explains the concepts of AI and how it will benefit the stakeholders of healthcare. Part II (Chapters 8 and 9) is brief, and will appeal more to entrepreneurs studying or pursuing business start-ups in this field.
I particularly enjoyed the optimism, descriptions, explanations and implications of these technologies, and was less enamoured by the business-development aspects. I appreciated the logical structure of the book, and the way that each chapter helpfully ends with Takeways to summarise the main concepts presented.

In the sea of self-help books there is a need to know how to choose about the best options and the resources about health, healing and care.
This book is a very nice resource to read and learn how our mind entangled with our body can be our best source to be well.
Very recommended
