Summary

EVIDENCE BASED MEDICINE is the bible of EBM. Known as the ultimate authority on the subject, this text was written by the foremost experts in the field.

Readers will be taught how to ask, translate, critically appraise, and integrate clinical questions. The book is packaged with a FREE CD-ROM containing extended descriptions and sample web pages of several current evidence sources. Spanish version also available, ISBN: 84-8174-511-1
