The book is systematized overview of up-to-date knowledge in informatics for application in clinical medicine and biomedicine, written by Professor of Biomedical Informatics at Graz University and Head of the Research Unit Human-Computer Interaction for Medicine and Health, Institute for Medical Informatics, Statistics and Documentation, Medical University Graz.

The book is designed as lecture notes for students. The aim is to provide students with key information in informatics with focus on data, information retrieval and knowledge discovery. Principles of cognitive science, human reasoning, information visualization and human-computer interaction are also included. Special emphasis is put on biomedical databases, including their acquisition, storage and use, as well as on medical decision making and problem solving methods. It also contains some basic facts on hospital information systems, including system`s architectures, workflows modeling, imaging data handling and multimedia use, together with information on data privacy, safety and security.

Although the book was planned as students` educational tools, in many aspects it succeeds to overcome this primary goal and to become a handbook of general approaches, suitable to wide audience. First of all, it can be offered as an external memory to academic teaching staff, not only those who gives lessons in biomedical informatics and computer sciences, but also those who provides education in more theoretical fundations, including theoretical mathematics, phylosophy, phylosophy of science, communicology and epistemology. This is because the book contains citations and references on important theoretical frameworks and famous theoreticians - the approach which may guide further reading.
