Most of you would probably have noticed the papers by Davey Smith et al.
("How policy informed the evidence") and MacIntyre et al. ("Using evidence
to inform health policy: A case study") in a recent issue of the BMJ. There
have been a number of electronic responses to these articles on the BMJ
website (one of them from me). To view the responses go to www.bmj.com,
access the Davey Smith et al. and MacIntyre et al. papers. When you have
each article on your screen, you'll see a box in the top right hand corner,
where you can click on the 'electronic responses' option.
I'd be interested in any further comments that people might have on these
articles or the responses to them.
