I have Modern Epidemiology by the same author and I had not bought this book because I thought it had only basic concepts but it was a very good surprise when I found many concepts that reinforced what I learned in the master of epidemiology that I completed. Besides, the author shows a lot of good examples that make it easier to understand the point he has in mind.By marthajuro
This is an excellent book or not depending on your career/major interests. If you are planning to do a PhD in Epidemiology, this is the book that you would want to read for an introductory class. Instead, if you are doing a Masters in Public Health and Epidemiology is one of the required courses that you have to take, this will probably be too dense for you and probably will confuse you. I would suggest Epidemiology by Leon Grdis for such students.By Objective
The new version is similar to the previous version except that the authors have added a chapter on the history of Epidemiology which I didnt like as it was written in a boring way and too dense.
I am giving this book 4 stars for the outstanding content and being probably the only introductory book that introduces Epidemiology concepts correctly. However, I though the previous edition of the book was better!
