Reviews
Review of the previous edition:
"This book will be a very useful text and reference source for students and trainees at all levels, as well as for seasoned investigators and RERB members. The continuing proliferation of formal, degree-granting masters and doctoral training programs in clinical investigation at academic centers across the country underscores the need for a book like this. These programs, and the growing acceptance and recognition of professional certification programs for clinical research professionals, are indicators that the expectations we place on investigators are greater than they were just a few years ago. Recognition that good science and good ethics are inextricably bound together in clinical research is today’s reality, and this book gives real insight into why and how." --JAMA, February 2006
