    Dear members of the ISPE RWE SIG - I'm pleased to announced that I've got a new book out that discusses the origins and logic of RWE, its strengths, and its future. It's called "RETHINKING MEDICATIONS: Truth, Power, and the Drugs You Take," and is being published by Simon & Schuster. It sums up much of what I've learned in 45 years in the field, and presents some practical insights into where we are now and how best to move ahead in these complicated times. 

        More information is at : www.amazon.com/Rethinking-Medications-Truth-Power-Drugs/dp/1668052849

    I'll be happy to send along a signed bookplate to anyone who wants one.
