Title: Epidemiology
Description: "Epidemiology applies contemporary research to theory, covering both quantitative and qualitative research methods in epidemiology for students in the health and medical sciences. It integrates a wide spectrum of case studies and examples from different health and medical disciplines and follows a two level 'methods based' approach differentiating between "basic" knowledge that all students of epidemiology should be familiar with and "beyond the basics" information for the interested or more advanced reader. It includes case studies from a variety of different types of studies across many health disciplines; critical thinking exercises are included to remind students about what they've learned, and extensive answers to the exercises provide further explanation; and learning objectives, key terms, end of chapter summaries and margin notes to ensure students have a firm grasp of the essentials.
