From the reviews:
"This book presents a ... complete picture of mathematical epidemiology from the point of view of the applied mathematics community. ... The stated goal of the book is to ‘persuade epidemiologists and public health workers that mathematical modelling can be of use to them.’ ... There seems to be material for almost every kind of student, with a minimal background in calculus and probability theory ... . A real life lesson that we cannot neglect." (Hernán G. Solari, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2009 k)
