This authoritative book discusses the use of clinical trials in health sciences including why they are important, how to do them and how they can be used most relevantly in health care for the future.
The chapters are based on papers given at an Oxford seminar by leading figures in this field and the discussions that followed.
The book will be of particular interest to clinical trialists and the pharmaceutical industry.
