Good point. Just ... trampling on other people.
Absolutely agree. That is why I bang on, somewhat to some people's dismay, about the public needing to call the agenda. I was responding to the...
Mm. I suspect it had not entered his head. He was wanting to pour out his new found faith in what he wanted to believe in.
Why I think this is so important is that Garner is putting across the real Cochrane values - a sort of evangelical hypocrisy. I have had it from...
I certainly do. I had no difficulty judging people's values when at the NICE committee taking questions - whether Adam, Sally, Peter Barry, Jo...

Sadly I think he fits in rather well. He called himself a philosopher and spent a lot of time trying to say what science is rather than getting on...
a lot of the time academic rehabilitation research has focused on a model that's very biomedical and we know that obviously rehabilitation is not...
I think much of the time it was this sort of overreaching. BPS philosophy seems to go much wider and further back than Wessely. To be honest I...
Isn't that what they do all the time? Not to be confused with real (natural) philosophers, of course, who tend not to claim to be philosophers,...
