Epidemiology Foundations: The Science of Public Health is an accessible introduction to epidemiology and the perfect text for instructors teaching an overview or introductory course, or for colleges incorporating epidemiologic content into liberal arts programs. It covers foundations, history, health and disease, descriptive epi, measurement, study designs, uses, epidemics, social epi, screening, community health, and global health. This book has been developed to closely respond to recommendations by the Consensus Conference on Undergraduate Public Health Education that all colleges and universities offer introductory course work in public health and epidemiology that satisfy social science and science distribution requirements respectively. Epidemiology Foundations is presented in three parts: Foundations, Tools and Methods, and Practice.
