Critics Review

‘This book is still a Treasure trove. As a practical tool kit and guide, it is excellent. As a textbook and teaching aid, specific chapters are very useful for reference. We are constantly reminded to reflect on what we are observing and to maintain a critical eye. It should be more widely advertised that the book is linked to a very accessible website containing additional content and we would recommend that students and trainees read this book. It is not only useful for reflecting on how doctors can use evidence and make decisions on a daily basis, but also as a pointer on how to manage ourselves and our patients.’ Jenny Reid, Alexander Slater and Alasdair Ball, British Journal of General Practice
