The Philosophy of Evidence-based Medicine
Jeremy H. Howick
- Evidence-based
- medicine
- (EBM)
- has
- become
- a
- required
- element
- of
- clinical
- practice,
- but
- it
- is
- critical
- for
- the
- healthcare
- community
- to
- understand
- the
- ongoing
- controversy
- surrounding
- EBM.
- Seeking
- to
- address
- questions
- raised
- by
- critics,
- The
- Philosophy
- of
- Evidence-based
- Medicine
- challenges
- the
- over
- dependency
- of
- EBM
- on
- randomized
- controlled
- trials.
- This
- book
- also
- explores
- EBM
- methodology
- and
- its
- relationship
- with
- other
- approaches
- used
- in medicine.
