Reviews

“This is a philosophical rethinking of the limitations of randomized controlled trials and the value of cross-over experiments conducted with a single patient. … This is a book for experienced clinicians who are knowledgeable about current evidence-based treatment modalities and who can objectively recognize when to consider different options for treatment.” (Vincent F. Carr, Doody’s Book Reviews, January 2016)
