How do we know whether a particular treatment really works? How
reliable is the evidence? And how do we ensure that research into
medical treatments best meets the needs of patients? These are just
a few of the questions addressed in a lively and informative way in
Testing Treatments. Brimming with vivid examples, Testing
Treatments will inspire both patients and professionals. Building
on the success of the first edition, Testing Treatments has now
been extensively revised and updated. The Second Edition includes a
thought-provoking chapter on screening, explaining why early
diagnosis is not always better. Other new chapters explore how
over-regulation of research can work against the best interests of
patients, and how robust evidence from research can be drawn
together to shape the practice of healthcare in ways that allow
treatment decisions to be reached jointly by patients and
clinicians. Testing Treatments urges everyone to get involved in
improving current research and future treatment, and outlines
practical steps that patients and doctors can take together.
