6/10. This book dove into the science of genomes and personalized medicine. I liked the discussion of what we can and can't learn from DNA sequencing and the development of different companies. However, I wish there was more in depth information about the sequencers. Additionally, this book is a bit out of date now. Some of the predictions for 2020 were not true simply because the book was written 10 years ago. If updated today, it might be much better.

Very good for giving the overview of the BioTech industry as it applies to the Human Genome sequencing race and the potential for use of this information in the future for Personalized Medicine. Wish it had more details on the next gen sequencing technologies.
