Review

"[A] probing and tightly-knit collection of papers... "Getting Doctors to Listen" has one of the hallmarks of truly important scholarly work: implications beyond its stated scope. In particular, the findings of the project pose a deep problem for the ethics of research." -- "JAMA (Journal of the American Medical Association)"
