In the UK a frequently cited reference is:
Muir Gray(1997) Evidence-based health: how to make health policy and management decisions.
London Churchill Livingstone.
There is also a useful discussion on the difficulties of coming up with an
internationally accepted definition of 'Complementary and Alternative medicine'
in the following reference that may be of interest to the EBH list members:
Nigel Wiseman.(2004). Designations of Medicines. eCAM 2004:1(3) 327-329

> Hi,

> Hope you can help. I have a presentation to prepare for an international audience
on "Who will pay for Complimentary and Alternative Medicine" As background
I would like to quote a key definitive reference on the emergence and signifcance
of EBM as an underlying theme/value/approach to modern health care. Could
you recommend one or maybe two that would be books or reviews that capture
the sigificance of evidence-based or evidence-informed decision making in
health care?
