Review of the previous edition:
"This sixth edition of a renowned introduction to the basic principles and concepts of epidemiology has been updated, revised, and expanded. This book is ideal for students requiring grounding in the principles and practice of epidemiology, but is equally a fantastic reference for professionals involved in the teaching of epidemiology in various settings and for those needing to confirm their understanding of essential information." --Michael A O'Rorke, PhD (University of Iowa College of Public Health) Doody's Score: 93-4 Stars!
