TRIAL BY FIRE
Lessons from the History of Clinical Trials
What can we learn from the past that may be relevant to modern clinical research?
In this book Allan Gaw draws on the experience of two decades working in clinical trials to show how the past can illuminate the present and help us understand our current position.
In a series of intriguing stories that take us from Babylon and Ancient Egypt, to Europe in the 17th and 18th Centuries, and on to the concentration camps of Nazi Germany, and the US in the 60s and 70s, he demonstrates the origins of randomisation and blinding in clinical trials; the importance of consent, trust and codes of ethical practice; and the crucial importance of publication. And he shows us where it may have all begun.
Allan Gaw, MD, PhD, FRCPath, FFPM is Director of Operations at the Glasgow Clinical Research Facility. He is the author or editor of 14 books mostly on the subjects of Clinical Biochemistry, Cardiovascular Research, and Lipid Metabolism
