Evidence Based Medicine provides a clear explanation of the central questions of EBM - how to ask answerable clinical questions, how to translate them into effective searches for the best evidence, how to critically appraise that evidence for its validity and importance, and how to integrate it with patients' values and preferences.

5.0 out of 5 stars The standard for teaching EBM, May 24 2004

Rhett Jackson (Norman, Oklahoma United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Evidence-Based Medicine: How to Practice and Teach Ebm (Paperback)

As a physician-teacher of EBM to internal medicine residents, this is the best book I've run across for this purpose. We utilize the reader's guides, first published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal and later in JAMA, written by Guyatt, Sackett, and others, which are perfectly complemented by this volume. I recommend it to all of the residents and have purchased multiple copies for house staff use (although I can't seem to keep them on the shelf...) It makes learning EBM fun and highlights its usefulness and, most importantly for busy physicians, speed. Worth reading for every physician interested in practicing medicine based on only the best evidence.

Adrian Mondry (Singapore) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Evidence-Based Medicine: How to Practice and Teach Ebm (Paperback)

Concise and precise- just what the busy clinician wants to see. And for whoever needs more info, there is an extra CD Rom that preovides just that. Few medical books had more impact on my professional behavior than this one. Buy it, read it, and follow its advise!

5.0 out of 5 stars Smashing!, Jan 26 2002

Nigel Tan (Singapore, Singapore Singapore) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Evidence-Based Medicine: How to Practice and Teach Ebm (Paperback)

Short and concise, this book really excels at demystifying EBM and making it easier (and more importantly, fun!). The use of flash cards for summarising points is great, and it's clear that the authors are enjoying themselves teaching EBM. This honestly is the first medical book that I'd classify as 'un-putdownable'!

5.0 out of 5 stars This book will change how you practice medicine.
Evidence based medicine. Those three words cause more frustration and despair than almost any others in medicine today.

This book demystifies all of that. Read more
