Author: Frank J. Ascione
Employs a structured, question-based approach to
evaluating clinical drug trials. The book includes eight sharply focused chapters, organized by the typical sections of a published article, and provides a basic overview of how to
critique papers describing drug studies. Three chapters cover special topics in
scientific literature evaluation. The book's well-established and effective instructional method refines and expands upon the scientific literature evaluation section of Ascione, Manifold and Parenti's textbook, Principles of Drug Information and Scientific Literature Evaluation (1994).
