‘This invaluable text explains the majority of clinical trial

clinical trial protocols, reports, regulatory guidelines, and
published manuscripts… Fully comprehensive – provides definitions
of clinical trial terms in one complete volume… Includes
extensive use of graphs throughout.’ LA DOC STI

medical, statistical, epidemiological and ethical terms… a useful
adjunct to standard clinical trial texts… a reference source to
keep within easy reach.’ TALANTA
