Industry Reviews

From reviews of the previous edition 'It is so well written that this seems to be a book to read with pleasure, rather than use for reference. That said, the contents and index are clear and a good glossary of terms is provided. Moreover it comes in a robust, small format to fit easily in a lab-coat pocket, and includes . contents in digital form.' 'This is a classic in the field of Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM). Its authors are all well-known experts in the field, the book is small, easy to read and provides a wealth of information on the subject. Good buy.' 'Clear, precise, and quite useful for introductory courses on EBM. The cd includes a lot of resources for everyday practice.' 'As a researcher and teacher of EBP I found this book to be incredibly useful as a guide and a reference. It provides a clear definition of EBP (EBM) in its broadest context. This book also sets out in clear steps how the process works, and develops, with concise information on how to implement evidence, and how to teach this implementation to health care students and workers.'
