Medical Education Research: Theory, Practice, Publication and Scholarship edited by BV Adkoli and Amita Ray, is most welcome and timely initiative. It is welcome because of its focus on educational research and evidence-based medical education in contrast with other books on medical education available in the market. This book is a pioneering effort grounded in the Indian context. Organized into four parts, theory, practice, publication, and scholarship, the book covers 30 chapters contributed by eminent authors from India and abroad. It addresses niche areas like program evaluation, public health, integrative medicine and medical humanities besides all domains of scholarship. ?
