Archie Cochrane – One Man’s Medicine

7 May 2009

‘One Man’s Medicine: An Autobiography of Professor Archie Cochrane’ by Archibald L. Cochrane with Max Blythe.

Published as part of Cardiff University’s celebrations of the centenary of the birth of Professor Archie Cochrane, a giant of modern medicine.

In ‘One Man’s Medicine’, Professor Archie Cochrane (1909-1988) recollects how events and experiences in the Spanish Civil War and in German prisoner of war camps, among many others, led   him to question traditional medical attitudes and champion an evidence-based, evaluative approach to medicine and healthcare with which his name is now inextricably linked.
