A few months ago I ran a query on ALLSTAT on ethics for medical statisticians.
Now I've finished my course exams (done well, thank you, for thinking about
it) I thought I might fulfill my debt to this mailing list by sending the long
awaited summary. The following is a list of the resources recommended by a
number of you together with two attachments.
