Product description
Review
"...remains a key textbook for introducing the subject to students and self-learners with little previous exposure to epidemiology or health-related research." (Clinical Chemistry, November 2004) "This is a fun book to read and provides a 'light version' of a specialty that often becomes 'heavy' and over burdensome...a wonderful beginning text and information source...Nicely done!" (Veterinary and Human Toxicology, Vol. 46, No. 2, April 2004)

5.0 out of 5 stars Good introductory text about epidemiology
Verified PurchaseGood introductory text about epidemiology. There are many others.... but for both teachers and students it is worthwhile having not just one such basic textbook.... but perhaps two (or even three) as different authors explain things from slightly different perspectives.
