Description

The second edition of Basic Epidemiology provides an introduction to the principles and methods of epidemiology.

It is designed to be accessible to professionals in public health and environment, undergraduate medical students, and those studying other health-related fields. The book's focus on modifiable environmental factors encourages the application of epidemiology to disease prevention and promotion of health, including environmental and occupational health.

The updated edition includes comprehensive chapters on key aspects of epidemiology, from its nature and uses to its role in evaluating healthcare effectiveness and efficiency. Its concise style is intended to stimulate a continued interest in the subject, making it an ideal resource for those looking to understand and apply the principles of disease causation and prevention.
