Emphasis is on common sense as the main ingredient of good science. The book explains how to choose well-focused research questions and details the steps through all the elements of study design, data collection, quality assurance, and basic grant-writing. All chapters have been thoroughly revised, updated, and made more user-friendly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing book
Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2011

I bought the previous edition and was so impressed with it that as soon as this edition came out, I bought it as well. I think that someone with no methodology training stands to benefit the most from reading this book. Having said that, I have a Master's in epidemiology and I will tell you, there is always something worthwhile to read in this book, whenever I come back to it.

If you are serious about clinical research, this is one book not to miss!!

Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2011

When I think of books about statistical analysis and clinical research, I'm not expecting a page turner, and while this book isn't taut with suspense or plot, it is remarkably readable and even has a sense of humor. In a clinical textbook, that's saying quite a bit. The writing is clear, the examples are understandable, and I find I am getting a good sense of the functions and applications of biostatistics with less angst than I would have thought possible. I highly recommend this book to anyone setting out to write a grant for the first time, or design graduate level research. Well written, relevant and pleasantly digestible.

Chapters well laid out and clear. A good reference and guide for designing clinical studies. My family health centers want to be able to take advantage of our electronic medical record to look for shortcomings and find ways to make our practice better.

I got the book and it was supposed to be new but there was quite a bit of damage to it. The cover was warn in all corners, all of the pages in the lower right hand corner were bent. Not at all impressed with the poor quality.

Purchased this book for a course. It is quite useful, particularly for those like me who do not know much about how to do clinical research but need to learn. Wish that it had a little more explanation of the statistics, though. Otherwise, very helpful book.
