Successfully tested in the authors' courses at Boston University and Harvard University, this text combines theory and practice in presenting traditional and new epidemiologic concepts. Broad in scope, the text opens with five chapters covering the basic epidemiologic concepts and data sources. A major emphasis is placed on study design, with separate chapters devoted to each of the three main analytic designs: experimental, cohort, and casecontrol studies. Full chapters on bias, confounding, and random error, including the role of statistics in epidemiology, ensure that students are wellequipped with the necessary information to interpret the results of epidemiologic studies. An entire chapter is also devoted to the concept of effect measure modification, an oftenneglected topic in introductory textbooks. Uptodate examples from the epidemiologic literature on diseases of public health importance are provided throughout the book. The second edition has been thoroughly revised with uptodate examples and data from epidemiologic literature and features over 100 new study questions.
