Reviews

'With authors spanning the globe from Japan, to Austria, to Canada, this excellent volume deftly tackles some of the most important legal and ethical issues raised by AI in healthcare, whether in apps, direct to consumer genetic tests, or electronic health records.' I. Glenn Cohen, James A. Attwood and Leslie Williams Professor of Law, Harvard Law School

'This is an excellent piece of work in the way in which it intertwines ICT Law and AI in the welfare state. Complicated matters are explained and discussed among today´s expertise in a most fruitful way. There is no doubt that eHealth is becoming a legal field of its own.' Cecilia Magnusson Sjöberg, Professor of Law and Information Technology, Department of Law, Stockholm University

'In AI in eHealth: Human Autonomy, Data Governance & Privacy in Healthcare the impressive lineup of authors provide an important discussion of some of the most pressing and complex issues facing society. This book is an important addition to existing literature and should be of widespread interest amongst academic, lawyers, data privacy professionals, the healthcare sector, computer scientists, and many more.' Dan Jerker B. Svantesson, Professor of Law, Bond University

'This profound interdisciplinary contributions of 22 experts reflect the state of the art on AI in E-Health. The authors demonstrate the importance of digitized health data for medical research, public health and individual medical treatment. The technical, medical, ethical and legal preconditions and implications of primary and secondary use of medical data are convincingly analyzed. The Recommendations should be taken into account for streamlining the current activities in E-Health on a European and global level.' Wolfgang Kilian, Professor Emeritus, Institute for Legal Informatics, Leibniz University Hannover, Germany
