In June 2000 Peter Houghton, a counselor in palliative care, was weeks from death due to cardiomyopathy. He had made his preparations and had said most of his good-byes. Then he was offered the chance to participate in a clinical trial. Six months later he was not only still alive, but planning a long distance walk for charity and writing this book about his experiences. With humor and honesty, his story chronicles the uneven path back from the brink of death. Combining knowledge drawn from his counseling work with other dying people and his unique personal experience, he describes what dying really feels like and explains the physical processes it involves. He also raises profound questions about medical trials and palliative care, and especially about our attitudes to life and death, and the way we approach death.

This is a scholarly examination of the placebo effect. The authors survey the use of placebos from antiquity to modern times, examine the development, use and validity of the double-blind controlled clinical trial, and present their own study of the placebo effect in more than 1000 patients. Until this century, most medications presribed by physicians were pharmacologically inert, if not harmful. Physicians were prescribing placebos or worse without knowing it. In a sense, then, the history of medical treatment until relatively recently is the history of the placebo effect. Based on the authors' lifelong study and clinical research, this is a comprehensive and scholarly examination of the placebo effect. The authors begin by surveying the use of placebos from antiquity to modern times. They also examine the development, use and validity of the double-blind controlled clinical trial. In addition, they present their own study of the placebo effect in more than 1000 patients. Demonstrating both the magnitude and the limitations of the placebo effect, the book helps to clarify issues ranging from the evaluation of therapies to the ethics of conducting controlled studies in which patients are deliberately given placebos.
