Media Reviews
Review of the hardback: '... a timely and important publication that should be an invaluable aid for applied psychologists, or anyone planning joint research with the NHS ... any researcher or member of an ethics committee will find plenty of interest.' The Psychologist
Review of the hardback: '... the guidelines are narrowly drawn to provide help for specific types of research; from work on radiation, gene transfer, or the use of genetic information to research in developing countries or with participants who cannot give informed consent ... the biggest challenge to the individual researcher is finding help to work through ethical issues, and the resource compiled by Eckstein and her colleagues is a useful place to start.' The Lancet
