Om e-bogen

Now in its fourth edition, Essential Epidemiology is an engaging and accessible introduction to the foundations of epidemiology. This text introduces the core concepts and shows the essential role of epidemiology in public health and medicine across a broad range of health monitoring and research activities. It draws on cases from chronic and infectious diseases, with vibrant contemporary, historical and hypothetical examples that enable students to engage with the content, while maintaining the mathematics requirement at an understandable level. Complexities are presented as optional material for extension. With more than 90 questions and answers to work through in the print book, and hundreds more in the interactive eBook, this is an essential resource for students, practitioners and anyone else who needs to interpret health data in their studies or work. Epidemiology’s most important goal is to bring rigour to the collection, analysis and interpretation of health data, to improve health at a global scale. Essential Epidemiology is highly regarded as the resource that provides readers with the tools to achieve that goal.
