Handbook of Epidemiology
Authors: Ahrens, Wolfgang; Pigeot, Iris (Editors)
Publisher: Springer
PDF | 1617 pages | 12,8mb | English language | ISBN 3540005668



The Handbook of Epidemiology provides a comprehensive overview of the field and thus bridges the gap between standard textbooks of epidemiology and dispersed publications for specialists that have a narrowed focus on specific areas. It reviews the key issues and methodological approaches pertinent to the field for which the reader pursues an expatiated overview. It thus serves both as a first orientation for the interested reader and as a starting point for an in-depth study of a specific area as well as a quick reference and recapitulatory overview for the expert. The book includes topics that are usually missing in standard textbooks and that are only marginally represented in the specific literature as well as innovative areas, e.g. molecular epidemiology, ethical aspects, practical field work, health systems research, quality control, and good epidemiological practice. Each chapter is written by one or more leading scientists and represents the state-of-the-art knowledge.

The objective of this book is to provide a comprehensive overview of the field of epidemiology, bridging the gap between standard textbooks of epidemiology and publications for specialists with a narrow focus on specific areas. It reviews the key issues, methodological approaches and statistical concepts pertinent to the field for which the reader seeks a detailed overview. It thus serves both as a first orientation for the interested reader and a starting point for an in-depth study of a specific area, as well as a quick reference and a summarizing overview for the expert. The handbook is intended as a reference source for professionals involved in health research, health reporting, health promotion, and health system administration and related experts. It covers the major aspects of epidemiology and may be consulted as a thorough guide for specific topics. It is therefore of interest for public health researchers, physicians, biostatisticians, epidemiologists, and executives in health services.

The broad scope of the book is reflected by four major parts that facilitate an integration of epidemiological concepts and methods, statistical tools, applications, and epidemiological practice. The various facets are presented in 39 chapters and a general introduction to epidemiology. The latter provides the framework in which all other chapters are embedded and gives an overall picture of the whole handbook. It also highlights specific aspects and reveals the interwoven nature of the various research fields and disciplines related to epidemiology. The book covers topics that are usually missing from standard textbooks and that are only marginally represented in the specific literature, such as ethical aspects, practical fieldwork, health services research, epidemiology in developing countries, quality control, and good epidemiological practice. It also covers innovative areas, e.g., molecular and genetic epidemiology, modern study designs, and recent methodological developments.
