I am reading The Cholesterol Myths (Ravnskov, Uffe (2000), The Cholesterol Myths: Exposing the Fallacy That Saturated Fat and Cholesterol Cause Heart Disease, New Trends Publishing, Washington, DC), and have come across some of the best 'analysis in action" I have read for a long time. It's clear, direct and easy to follow, unlike the publications it is dissecting.
If you are studying a research paper this year, I would advise you to at least skim read the chapter "Myth 2" for an object lesson in critiquing research. Look for it soon on the library display shelves (near the journals) or at WG 120 on the general shelves.
Ravnskov has a website: http://www.ravnskov.nu/cholesterol.htm, and there are many interesting links (for and against his views) if you would like to do a web search.
