Pressezitat
From the reviews: "This is the latest addition to the small number of books on reproductive and perinatal epidemiology methods. ... the writing style, the clear explanations, and the many pictorial depictions will make this a very popular book for teachers and students of reproductive and perinatal epidemiology, as well as a useful methods handbook for those in the trenches." (Arden Handler, Doody's Review Service, March, 2009)
