A short guide to peer review

""I don't know what to believe..." is a short public guide to peer review, published by Sense About Science on 2 November 2005, 8pp."

"Is it peer reviewed?" is what Sense About Science is encouraging everyone to ask about science stories. Our new leaflet, written with input from patients, pharmacists and medical practitioners, among others, lets the public in on the arbiter of scientific quality: the peer review process."


It's written in layman's terms. I thought it might be helpful to just about anyone on this list. Download the PDF file at this location:http://www.senseaboutscience.org.uk/peerreview/shortguide.htm
