It has a clear and logical structure that leads you through the knowledge base needed to critically appraise and evaluate clinical research studies … Each section has brief measurable learning outcomes to give the learning focus and particularly helpful is the “Jargon Busting” glossary placed at the end of each chapter … This is the book I wish I had written.”
