Reviews

This is a good starting point for someone new to the field or a great assistance in systematising one's knowledge. It has a clear style, measured approach, cautious and accurate approach to scientific modelling and awareness of its limitations and aims. Interesting and accurate attempt to bring together various concepts within the field that is notorious for its lack of common ground and subjectivity. BMA Medical Book Awards 2016
