I think this is pretty accurate
"Where does that leave us? The authors have two main pieces of advice. First, choose a shoe that feels comfortable to you; there's evidence that perception of comfort is actually relatively sensitive guide to how compatible a shoe is with your foot. Second, pay more attention to all the non-shoe factors that lead to running injury -- most importantly, training errors. In the end, the underlying cause of virtually all overuse injuries is still the simplest: too much, too soon"

Spot on. Should be compulsory reading for beginners posting a question about shoe selection. The problem is that a new pair of shoes seems like an easy fix.
The rest of us have known this for years booktrunk but still you get people who blame everything on the wrong trainers and that they didn't get a gait analysis from a "proper" running shop etc etc...
