“Envision presents in objective fashion the glorious era when GE under the legendary leadership of Walter Robb introduced innovations in CT and MRI that made them into the splendid imaging modalities that have revolutionized the practice of medicine. It is a must reading for anyone interested in the history of medical imaging.”

“The years at Medical Systems were clearly the highlight of my 42-year GE career. This history brings it all back to life—the crises, the celebrations, the people and places. We knew we were revolutionizing diagnostic imaging, and it felt so good to be helping people while at the same time giving GE a major business in healthcare. Our partnering with the GE Research Laboratory in Schenectady established record achievements in times that our competitors couldn’t believe. I am delighted to have this business history recorded so thoroughly by Gene and Leon.”

"This book performs a great service by highlighting the fact that GE is just as much about people and heritage as it is about numbers and forecasts."
Marc Onetto
"GE Healthcare's long and successful history described so well in this book is the result of the hard work of many teams and inspired leaders. Successful history is not an entitlement for future success in an ever changing world. But it is a must read for future leadership teams to learn from their predecessors and to build confidence on the solid foundations of the past to face new challenges."
