The best and wisest of men or a heartless machine? Crusader for justice or cynical egoist? Mr. Holmes, the brain of Baker Street, continues to fascinate, to baffle, and to be interpreted very differently—by, among others, Basil Rathbone, Jeremy Brett, Robert Downey Jr., and Benedict Cumberbatch, without losing his unmistakable identity. Sherlock Holmes and Philosophy applies observation and deduction to the ultimate “three pipe problem,” the meaning of Sherlock Holmes. -- Cover p. [4] and publisher's website.

This lively handbook on the fundamentals of Evidence-based Medicine (EBM) leads the reader, step by step, through a process that proceeds from a patient’s medical history, via information searches and critical appraisal of the literature, to recommendations for treatment. Using a simple four-step approach, the author illustrates how to develop better questions and more effective searches, resulting in objective and clinically relevant information that can be evaluated and implemented in day-to-day practice. Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson, the famous fictional detectives, assist throughout, drawing parallels between criminal and medical investigation, and simplifying the processes and themes of EBM. Evidence-Based Medicine in Sherlock Holmes’ Footsteps is a concise, accessible and instructive introduction to EBM for medical students, health care trainees, doctors and allied health professionals, and a valuable resource for anyone wanting to improve their ability to search, access and interpret the wealth of information at the fingertips of today’s medical community.

Now you can follow in the footsteps of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson in and around London. Recaptured in sepia prints from the late Victorian era and stunning full-color photographs of the city as it is today, you walk down the same streets as Colonel Sebastian Moran, the Baker Street Irregulars, and the Greek Interpreter. Join Holmes as he takes in an evening of Wagner at Covent Garden Theatre. Stand in the very room at St. Bartholomew's Hospital where Dr. Watson first meets the great detective in A Study in Scarlet, and travel down the fogshrouded Thames in pursuit of Jonathan Small from The Sign of Four. London has changed since the days when the sun never set on the British Empire, but you can still see where Holmes battled that Napoleon of crime, Professor Moriarty, unraveled the mystery of The Noble Bachelor, and the woman, Irene Adler. Ride double-decker busses where horse-drawn broughams clopped through the night; visit a replica of the sitting room of Holmes and Watson at the pub The Sherlock Holmes; drink a pint in Moriarty's Baker Street Station. They're all here and more in photographs and maps, supplemented by the incomparable engravings of Holme's foremost illustrator, Sidney Paget. Holmes fans and armchair travelers alike will rejoice with this full-color photographic odyssey through the London of the world's first consulting detective.
