A Guide to Patient Recruitment and Retention PDF

Good, up-to-date review of current state of patient recruitment and retention, by a knowledgeable and experienced author. She describes a research environment of the 90's and through the first few years of this century, and I expect that the research terrain will change quickly and dramatically in the face of medical informatics, so that the book may not remain current. But for the time being, it is an excellent summary for those involved in high-volume clinical investigation, especially in the development of new drugs.

A Guide to Patient Recruitment and Retention - do not recommend

Waste of money - there is nothing new in this book that cannot be gleaned on the internet
