Summary: Excellent Primer/Summary of EBM Concepts
Comment: This is an excellent summary of the concepts of EBM. It also can serve as a Primer on EBM. It clearly presents the basic concepts of Evidence Based Medicine, with an excellent set of flow diagrams that illustrate how to carry out the EBM processes. It also provides a very good set of questions to assess the validity of the different types of medical articles. An important point to be kept in mind is that although the topics are presented in a very clear manner, they are not meant for in-depth learning of EBM. There are more in depth books for that particular purpose such as Bandolier's Little Book of Making Sense of the Medical Evidence, Strauss' Evidence Based Medicine, or Jenicek's Foundations of Evidence Based Medicine. This Toolkit of EBM is a great value and an excellent way to refresh EBM concepts.

Summary: Simple and Helpful EBM Book
Comment: Those of us with training in internal medicine, epidemiology, and statistics have something in common: we don't get invited to a lot of parties! After all, we are fascinated by the very things that scare away most people: numbers, statistics, decision-making theory. And there's no question that some of the tools and concepts of EBM -- based as they are in arcania -- can be off-putting to physicians or medical students who got into medicine for the reward of direct patient care.
But what has become evident over the last twenty years is that applying the tools of knowledge to the practice of medicine leads to better decision making, and sometimes saves our patients from experiencing therapies that do them scant good. This little book nicely summarizes many of the tools and techniques that can help the practicing physician make better decisions. In addition, it can be of value to medical students and residents struggling (a) to understand decision-making and (b) to find time to read anything at all. To the last point, the size of this book is a boon.
This book isn't always easy to read, it won't make you a better conversationalist at dinner, and it won't make you seem interesting to your friends. But it might help you take care of patients in a less subjective and more objective manner.
