Consumer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Very Worthwhile! Comment: I purchased this book for an Epidemiology class...interestingly enough, the instructor of the class is the author! This is my first introduction to an epidemiology textbook and thus far, I've found the book to be extremely worthwhile. The concepts are clearly explained, the examples plentiful, and the online exercises are very valuable. Customer Rating: Summary: The ONE epidemiology book you need Comment: If you are going to get one epidemiology text, this is the one to get. It is well-written, straightforward, but not dumbed-down! It covers all of the major areas of epidemiology and there are ample references to more in-depth papers on specific topics. A companion web site includes review problems, outlines, slides, and link to external references. For the beginner, it is a great introduction to the field of epidemiology. If you have read more advanced books, Epidemiology Kept Simple will help solidify concepts and help link ideas together. Customer Rating: Summary: Recommended Text Comment: "This should become THE epidemiology text." -Paul M. Gahlinger, MD, PhD, Department of Family and Preventive Medicine, University of Utah Customer Rating: Summary: Useful resource book for clinical epi courses Comment: The explanations and presentation of material in this book make this a resource I often recommend both for people familiar and new to the field.
