In this Medical Center Hour, Ms.
Levine shares her vision of medicine’s future. But instead of actual medical
expertise, she brings her experiences as a patient in search of a diagnosis and
a curative path to physical health. To regain metaphysical health,
though, she had to abandon Sir Isaac Newton’s clockwork universe and enter a
universe that mirrored the randomness, uncertainty, and turbulence of her
actual experience. Only quantum physics and chaos theory can make sense of this
new universe—and also of medicine today?
