N2 - Archibald “Archie” Cochrane is the brilliant creator of the evidence-based
medicine (EBM). His book “Effectiveness and Efficiency: random reflections
on health services” is one of the fundamental texts of Medicine today. For
his influence on the progress of medicine, Cochrane may be considered one
of the greater physicians of all time. He gave an exceptional boost to the
improvement of medical practice worldwide. Cochrane’s vision of medicine
and his great scientific achievements are still alive through the Cochrane
Collaboration, an organization which provides valuable impulses to improving
the quality of medical care. Also he was a great epidemiologist, very proud of his epidemiological work, and his life is interesting for adventurous events and extraordinary examples of righteousness and generosity.
