These approaches include anything from a belief system to the common proverb. How does one sort through all of these ideas to come up with something truthful? In The Common Thread I detail a methodology of understanding and pursuing what’s important to you, but I want to speak here about the rational approach for absorbing information. Thinking rationally is not always easy and not always fun, but the results it yields are far greater than any alternative. The proverbs and approaches frequently quoted to me by people I encounter are often blindly adopted without considering...

As Daniel Carlat has humorously described, Stossel is planning the inaugural meeting next week of a group to counter those he calls pharmascolds. The group is named ACRE – Association of Clinical Researchers and Educators.

Dr. S...
