This intermediate-level text explores key epidemiologic concepts and basic methods in more depth than basic texts. Moyses and Nieto (epidemilogy, Johns Hopkins School of Hygiene and Public Health) present nine chapters that discuss cohort and nested case-control studies, birth cohort analysis, ecological studies, cumulative incidence, measures of association, confounding, interaction, reliability and validity measure, forms of bias, and other topics. Complex concepts such as confounding, interactions, and statistical modeling are illustrated with graphics, diagrams, and examples. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
