When G ø tzsche (clinical research design and analysis, Nordic Cochrane Centre, U. of Copenhagen, Denmark) coauthored a review of mammography screening for breast cancer which documented the poor quality of many of the clinical trials on which several countries' policies are based and the extent of subsequent over-diagnosis and over-treatment, he created a controversy. He presents issues in cancer screening and examples of the biases and worse in clinical research, and misleading statistics reported in the media. The book includes a foreword by the president of the National Breast Cancer Coalition, US, and the author's leaflet on the benefits and risks of such screening. Published by Radcliffe Publishing, UK, and distributed in the US by BookMasters. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
