Epidemiology: An Introduction
Sign in to keep track of books you’ve read and want to read.
During the last 30 years of the 20th century, epidemiology has matured from fledging scientific field into a vibrant discipline that brings together the biological and social sciences, and in doing so draws upon disciplines ranging from statistics and survey sampling to the philosophy of science. These areas of knowledge have converged into a modern theory of epidemiology that has been slow to penetrate into textbooks, particularly at the introductory level.
