Review

'... a practical guide to epidemiological studies which takes the reader through all the steps involved in clear and concise stages ... evolved from a teaching programme in epidemiology for public health students, and it has obviously benefited from refinements made by feedback from participants ... a very useful and user-friendly volume as an introduction to the field of epidemiology.' D. Crawford, Epidemiology and Infection

'This volume is very clearly written and has a well laid-out structure making it easy for the reader to dip in and dip out or to take long swims without getting tired. It has plenty of practical advice for the novice and for the experienced researcher. Well produced, this book deserves to be widely read - by clinicians, researchers, and managers.' Dinesh Bhugra, Behaviour Research and Therapy
