Description:
This manual serves as an introduction to the principles and methods of epidemiology, designed for undergraduate medical and public health students, as well as health professionals in in-service courses. It begins by explaining the causes of disease, with a focus on modifiable environmental factors, and demonstrates how epidemiology can be applied to disease prevention and health promotion. The book includes numerous examples from scientific literature.
The chapters cover the application of epidemiology in various areas, including communicable diseases, clinical medicine, environmental and occupational health, and health care planning and evaluation. It aims to prepare health professionals for the growing need to base health protection programs and services on sound epidemiological analysis. This approach provides a foundation for health services that address the overall health of populations and make the best use of available resources.
