Customer Reviews

It's a crime this is out of print.

I spend every day of my work life reading research proposals created by MDs with no understanding of the basic concepts of study design. If this book were in print, I would send each of these deficient investigators a copy. It's the perfect little tome for a lay reader (both medical consumers and MDs alike)

Clear and compact

I strongly reccomend this book to the general practitioner and all people interested in epidemiology.As an epidemiology student I have found in this book the explanation of many concepts in a clear and easy way, which is rather difficult to find in most epidemiology books. The authors took account of the thoughts of other great epidemiologist and epidemiology textbooks. I find this book very useful for all people that want to know a bit about epidemiology or want to know if epidemiology can be a good career choice.The authors have a clear and down to the point narrative. They have explained the "philosophy" of epidemiology in about 100 pages, giving the knowledge necessary to start serious epidemiologic research.
