Rezension zu „Epidemiology “
Reviews from the previous edition This is an excellent introduction to the principles and concepts of epidemiology. In a little over 200 pages Rothman covers all the essential topics for an introductory graduate level course in epidemiology. European Journal of Public Health Epidemiology: An Introduction provides an exceptionally lucid overview of analytic epidemiology... The mix of text, graphics, tables, and sidebars that is used throughout the book proves very useful in explicating important concepts such as confounding, interaction, study design, and biases, which may be challenging to the student in an introductory course... The clarity of expression in this book should be an inspiration to other authors and teachers of epidemiology. The Epidemiology Monitor In summary, this book is a brilliant introductory book to learn concepts of epidemiology. European Journal of Epidemiology
