In The Genome Odyssey, Dr. Euan Ashley, Stanford professor of medicine and genetics, brings the breakthroughs of precision medicine to vivid life through the real diagnostic journeys of his patients and the tireless efforts of his fellow doctors and scientists as they hunt to prevent, predict, and beat disease.Since the Human Genome Project was completed in 2003, the price of genome sequencing has dropped at a staggering rate. It’s as if the price of a Ferrari went from $350,000 to a mere forty cents. Through breakthroughs made by Dr. Ashley’s team at Stanford and other dedicated groups around the world, analyzing the human genome has decreased from a heroic multibillion dollar effort to a single clinical test costing less than $1,000. For the first time we have within our grasp the ability to predict our genetic future, to diagnose and prevent disease before it begins, and to decode what it really means to be human.In The Genome Odyssey, Dr. Ashley details the medicine behind genome sequencing with clarity and accessibility. More than that, with passion for his subject and compassion for his patients, he introduces readers to the dynamic group of researchers and doctor detectives who hunt for answers, and to the pioneering patients who open up their lives to the medical community during their search for diagnoses and cures. He describes how he led the team that was the first to analyze and interpret a complete human genome, how they broke genome speed records to diagnose and treat a newborn baby girl whose heart stopped five times on the first day of her life, and how they found a boy with tumors growing inside his heart and traced the cause to a missing piece of his genome.These patients inspire Dr. Ashley and his team as they work to expand the boundaries of our medical capabilities and to envision a future where genome sequencing is available for all, where medicine can be tailored to treat specific diseases and to decode pathogens like viruses at the genomic level, and where our medical system as we know it has been completely revolutionized.

Dr. Ashley, a cardiologist and geneticist, takes the reader through some basic genetics initially. Very basic. You don't have to have a science background to understand what he's saying. But you do have to take that part of the book in small chunks and ruminate on them. With that primer information under your belt, Dr.Ashley gets into individual cases wherein he was a physician and or genetics consultant and researcher. Very unusual cases of diseases you've never heard of for the most part. And discussions of the travails of those patients who suffer with their initially undiagnosed medical maladies. Then into the degrees of success, or lack thereof of these patients. He brings these patients into the reader's life. These are real people with real lives. You become sympathetic to them. Their struggles medically and socially become germane to you, the reader. You root for them.It's amazing what genetics is doing for some disease analysis and treatment. And with CRISPR gene editing, more avenues are open to treat patients with diseases that have a genetic component, even a point mutation or a combination of dysfunctioning genes. Cutting edge stuff. No telling where this science and medicine will be in the forthcoming decades. This book will get you up to speed, for now.
