Learning to Study Subjective Responses by Henry K. Beecher
Dorr Professor of Research in Anaesthesia at Harvard University ' I want to discuss placebos-a pinch ?f table salt, a dash of baking soda: Wert substances, in fact-as a tool for studying in a quantitative way certain fascinating influences of suggestion on our minds and bodies.' Dr. Beecher had a long-standing interest in the effects of drugs on sleep but was led into a study of problems of pain, not least by his wartime experiences at Anzio.
