A brief review of “A Quick Guide to Clinical Trials,” edited by Dr. Madhu Davies and Dr. Faiz Kermain.
May 14, 2008-“A Quick Guide to Clinical Trials,” edited by Dr. Madhu Davies and Dr. Faiz Kermain, and offered by BioPlan Associates, truly lives up to its title. While it could serve as a textbook for a primer class on the clinical trials industry, the quick read would be suitable for anyone wishing to learn more about clinical trials-including people outside or inside the industry. If you are in data management, for example, and want to learn more about ethics in clinical research-or vise versa-this would be a useful resource. The book consists of 14 chapters dedicated to a different segment of the clinical trials process, each written by an industry expert. The information is up-to-date and offers personal, yet professional, insights into the current issues applicable to that segment.
