Each chapter provides key concepts and a list of key references. Subject specific methodology and disease specific issues (from cancer to genetic epidemiology) are dealt with in details. There is also a focused chapter on the principles and practice of computer-assisted learning.Readership: Teachers in public health, epidemiology, clinical medicine, health policy; health economists; and health
