  Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming the landscape of healthcare, offering new possibilities for improving diagnosis, treatment, and patient care. At its core, AI refers to the ability of machines to simulate human intelligence through learning, reasoning, problem-solving, and decision-making. In healthcare, this means using advanced computational models and algorithms to analyze data, identify patterns, and make predictions that were once the exclusive domain of human experts. 
  The journey of AI in medicine began in the mid-20th century with the development of the first rudimentary computer programs designed to simulate human cognition. Since then, technological advancements have propelled AI into the forefront of healthcare innovation. Today, AI is used across a wide range of applications, from enhancing medical imaging and diagnosing diseases to streamlining administrative tasks and improving patient outcomes. 
  One of the most notable contributions of AI to healthcare is in the realm of diagnosis and disease detection. Machine learning algorithms, for instance, are capable of analyzing vast datasets—such as medical images, electronic health records (EHRs), and genomic information—to detect patterns that might be invisible to the human eye. AI systems are now being used to detect conditions like cancer, heart disease, and neurological disorders at earlier stages, offering the potential for more accurate and timely interventions.

  Body Am I - The New Science of...

  The body is central to our sense of identity. Bodily awareness, says scientist-writer Moheb Costandi, is key to self-consciousness. In Body Am I, Costandi examines how the brain perceives the body, how that perception translates into our conscious experience of the body, and how that experience contributes to our sense of self. Along the way, he explores what can happen when the mechanisms of bodily awareness are disturbed, leading to such phenomena as phantom limbs, alien hands, and amputee fetishes. 
   
   
    
  Costandi explains that the brain generates maps and models of the body that guide how we perceive and use it, and that these maps and models are repeatedly modified and reconstructed. Drawing on recent bodily awareness research, the new science of self-consciousness, and historical milestones in neurology, he describes a range of psychiatric and neurological disorders that result when body and brain are out of sync, including not only the well-known phantom limb syndrome but also phantom breast and phantom penis syndromes; body integrity identity disorder, which compels a person to disown and then amputate a healthy arm or leg; and such eating disorders as anorexia. 
   
   
    
  Wide-ranging and meticulously researched, Body Am I offers new insight into self-consciousness by describing it in terms of bodily awareness.
