What is Reddit's opinion of Biodesign: The Process of Innovating Medical Technologies?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

Thanks for your input!

Yeah I totally understand about medical moving slowly, the regulatory process surrounding it seems like a science in and of itself.

Apparently engineering in the medical industry also pays the best on average than most conventional engineering industries? It could be because they tend to work in capital cities, or maybe because medical professions are generally pretty highly paid, and some of that recognition rubs off onto the engineers (I’d take advantage of that gravy train for as much as I could!)

Thats interesting regarding low disruption, but understandable when looking at barriers to entry. I just started reading this book Biodesign , a massive book but lays out literally everything about the medical device industry and how to innovate within it. Thoroughly recommended.

I haven't read any of those authors' books but I only read books that describes processes or books that have actions items to apply to your life. I used to read books that only made me feel good and I wouldn't learn or improve on anything.

For example, I have a book that details a process to innovate the healthcare field. This process has been developed by Stanford for 13+ years through research and consultation of high-level executives, physicians, other healthcare professionals, large companies, small companies across the world. Stanford has been teaching this process for almost 13 years as well. This book is my bible. I'm going to use this process for developing my own startup.

My point is, this kind of book is much more valuable to me than the ones that make you feel good or just motivate you.
