Essays on Medical Failure: A formal multilevel approach

This book examines the nesting of cognitive structures that links biological processes to embedding social, cultural, and historical phenomena, using statistical tools adapted from Shannon's communication theory. Such interaction generates complexities that challenge magic bullet interventions, leading to catastrophes like the inverse Moore's Law of drug research cost. Here we explore the formal basis for multiscale and multilevel strategies that might prove more fruitful.
