Hi Anoop,
I would recommend :
http://www.springerlink.com/content/j768h230j766537l/
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed?term=10.1177%2F1363461509102297
And an excellent book where I learnt a lot about thinking, but, unfortunately, not much about evidence based medicine :
http://www.amazon.com/Thinking-Fast-Slow-Daniel-Kahneman/dp/0374275637/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1330371780&sr=8-1
And of course I would recommend the classics :

http://ebm.bmj.com/content/15/6/178.extract
