Already assigned as required reading for students at Harvard University, the University of Montana, and Hampshire College, Epic Measures is the story of a 20-year, 500-scientist attempt to track and quantify every illness, injury, and death for everyone on Earth: the biggest of Big Data ever. The book offers an intimate look at doctor and economist Christopher Murray, who began the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) studies, and whose unwavering determination to improve global health standards has already changed the way the world addresses issues of health and wellness, sets policy, and distributes funding. | Epic Measures by Jeremy N.
