A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK • NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A bold, urgent appeal from the acclaimed columnist and political commentator, addressing one of the most important issues of our time“At this painful moment, Peter Beinart’s voice is more vital than ever. His reach is broad—from the tragedy of today’s Middle East to the South Africa he knows well to events centuries ago—his scholarship is deep, and his heart is big. This book is not just about being Jewish in the shadow of today’s war, but about being a person who cares for justice.” —Adam Hochschild, author of American Midnight and King Leopold’s GhostIn Peter Beinart’s view, one story dominates Jewish communal life: that of persecution and victimhood. It is a story that erases much of the nuance of Jewish religious tradition and warps our understanding of Israel and Palestine. After Gaza, where Jewish texts, history, and language have been deployed to justify mass slaughter and starvation, Beinart argues, Jews must tell a ne

However, these technologies and their results have uncertainties and impact all facets of precision patient management. Uncertain Precision: Managing Health Care with Personalized Technologies provides an in-depth overview of precision medicine and its relationship with new technology, examining its current scope, benefits, and limitations. While new medical technologies can identify many individual traits that establish diagnoses, predict the course of illness, and recommend therapies, the tools and their results have uncertainties that the health care professional must anticip
