reviewed Health Matters: A Pocket Guide for Working with Diverse Cultures and Underserved Populations on April 18, 2007
Health Matters
3/10. Not well written, but worth reading if medical statistics are your profession or hobby. On page 382 it says, "A common mistake when there is inconclusive evidence is to confuse 'no evidence of an effect' with 'evidence of no effect.' It has other interesting quotes as well but a much better book should be written for medical statistics.
