E-DRUG: How to read a paper (contd.) ------------------------------------ The series in the BMJ was already published in May as a paperback book. The details are: Trisha Greenhalgh. How to read a paper: the basics of evidence based medicine. BMJ Publishing Group 1997. xxvii +196 pages. ISBN 0-7279 -1139-2 Price: UK: Pound sterlings: 14.95 [BMA members 13.95] other countries Pound sterlings: 17.00 [BMA members 16.00] Can be ordered by credit card - phone +44 171 383 6185/ 6245 or by post from BMJ Publishing Group, PO Box 295, London WC1H 9TE                                                                I strongly recommend the book, and not just because Trisha is a friend and neighbour of mine. It is excellent for teaching and learning & is easier to use than other books on evidence based medicine. For everybody working in primary care, as well as those in more specialised settings.

All e-druggers, please spell out the monetary unit that you use instead of using the character in your key board which differs in other countries. In this case, I guessed that Andrew used Pound sterlings. Please correct me if I am wrong. Thanks.
