Description

The Placebo A Reader by Franklin G. Miller is a comprehensive collection of articles on the placebo effect, bringing together classic and contemporary perspectives on this complex phenomenon. The placebo effect refers to the responses individuals have to the psychosocial context of medical treatments or clinical encounters, distinct from specific physiological effects of medical interventions. This book provides a systematic investigation of the placebo effect, tracing its emergence in the 1950s as part of randomized controlled clinical trials and exploring recent advances in scientific and scholarly research. Organized into three sections, The Placebo is a valuable sourcebook for investigators and scholars, covering the nature and significance of the placebo effect, experimental studies, and ethical issues surrounding placebos in research and clinical practice.
