Abstract
We are proud that this issue marks a special contribution by the Journal of Health Psychology to the literature concerning interventions to manage adaptation to chronic health problems. The PACE Trial debate reveals deeply embedded differences between critics and investigators. It reveals an unwillingness of the co-principal investigators of the PACE trial to engage in authentic discussion and debate. It leads one to question the wisdom of such a large investment from the public purse (£5million) on what is a textbook example of a poorly done trial.

I was going to quote the best bits to share, but it is fairly short and is all so good that I recommend you just read it.
And the index of the special issue, which I believe we are all well familiar with at this stage: http://journals.sagepub.com/toc/hpqa/current
