Reviews
Hospital Doctor, November 2003
This book is valuable to all those interested in demystifying reviews, and should enable you to initiate your own.

Current Medical Research and Opinion
The tone is layman-friendly, yet scientifically concise, appropriate for health professionals or for individuals … it is certainly an excellent introduction to the principles of systematic review and a good companion to designing a protocol to initiate reviews and critical appraisals.

Dr M Margaret Nicol, British Journal of Occupational Therapy, July 2003 66(7)
New reviewers will find a wealth of information in this book, which will certainly aid the review process.

Claire Jones, Pharmaceutical Journal, 26 July 2003
This book is well written and is a useful tool for any pharmacist wishing to explore systematic review further.

HIGHLY COMMENDED in the Basis of Medicine category
A clear, useful guide to a potentially off-putting topic. The authors build the confidence of non-biostatisticians

Physiotherapy, 2003
This book provides an invaluable tool for clinicians, educators or researchers… the materials in the book are very well organised, and are structured into logically flowing sections with clear headings and very useful worked examples.

British Journal of Surgery, March 2004
This little book is a gem. It is one of the several available on the subject, but it stands head and shoulders above its opposition on account of its brevity and clarity of prose. If you ever read or write systematic reviews, read this book first.

The British Journal of Healthcare Computing & Information Management, February 2004
The libraries of all educational and research institutions concerned with health sciences should have one.

Primary Care Mental Health Volume 2, Number 1
The real strength of this book is that not only gives an excellent account of the stages involved in a systematic review but also manages to convey an enthusiasm to make the reader want to conduct one. If only all medical books were written with such clarity!

ENT News, Volume 13, Number 4
This book provides and ideal introduction to the process of systematic reviewing. … This is a useful and helpful book, providing a good introduction to systematic reviewing. I hope many will read it…

Bandolier
This book will undoubtedly help some people to do their own reviews.

ANZ Journal of Surgery
The case studies are… excellent… I believe this is an essential textbook for all clinicians involved in evidence-based medicine. I believe it is widely applicable to health-care professionals at all levels of practice… I will certainly ensure that it is my library. The book is a short but excellent volume of use to all clinicians addressing the key principles of systematic reviews in evidence-based medicine.
