With a practical and updated approach, the work guides the reader from observation and hypothesis development to data collection and analysis, reflecting how this discipline is practiced today. All chapters have been updated, the number of practical examples has been increased, and comprehensive coverage of Covid-19 is provided, making it an essential tool for both students and public health professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work is structured into three clearly differentiated sections. The first section explains how epidemiology is used to understand health and the development of diseases in populations, establishing the conceptual foundations. The second section details the epidemiological methods used to attribute associations between a hypothetical exposure (risk) and a health outcome, delving into study design and analysis. The third section addresses the daily applications of epidemiology in the field of public health, showing its practical relevance. Following Professor Gordis's legacy, the text uses abundant illustrations and examples to demonstrate how epidemiological principles are put into practice, with special attention to updated content and the inclusion of new cases, including comprehensive coverage of the Covid-19 pandemic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMain Topics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eFundamental principles and concepts of epidemiology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eMethods of observation, hypothesis development, and data analysis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eEpidemiological study design and risk attribution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eApplications of epidemiology in public health and health management\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eUpdated coverage of the Covid-19 pandemic and its population impact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eSelf-assessment through questions at the end of each chapter and a glossary of genetic terminology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at students of health sciences, medicine, nursing, and public health who are seeking a solid and updated foundation in epidemiology.
