| Summary, etc. |
Biostatistics BIOSTATISTICS: AN APPLIED INTRODUCTION FOR THE PUBLIC HEALTH PRACTITIONER is designed to help readers understand and apply essential biostatistics concepts. This innovative new book emphasizes real-world public health problems and the research questions they inspire, providing a uniquely practical introduction to the statistical concepts and methods that working professionals use during investigations. Unlike other books that assume a strong knowledge of mathematics or rely heavily on formulas, BIOSTATISTICS consistently emphasizes the public health context, making even complex material both accessible and relevant. The first chapter introduces common statistical terminology by explaining them in clear language, while subsequent chapters explore the most useful and versatile statistical methods for a variety of public health research questions. For each type of question, the author presents a range of applicable methods, from descriptions of data to simple statistical tests, generalized linear models, and multiple variable regression. The book combines step-by-step coverage of fundamental concepts with a great deal of depth and detail, making it equally useful for those new to the field of public health and experienced professionals. Readers of all backgrounds can draw on this invaluable resource to help them interpret and conduct statistical studies and support effective evidence-based practice. Introduction to Epidemiology Gradually immerse yourself in the science of public health while learning about cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, and infectious diseases, and more. The first half of the book focuses on basic concepts in epidemiology, such as its history and integration into public health, disease occurrence, data sources, accuracy, and study design. Delving into high impact diseases and conditions, the second half guides you through the distribution and determinants of disease, including those of developing countries, while you gain a global perspective. BASICS OF EPIDEMIOLOGY: THE DISTRIBUTION AND DETERMINANTS OF DISEASE IN HUMANS, 1st Edition was written for readers with no prior knowledge of epidemiology, and includes useful online references, basic math resources, real-world problems, and an optional supplement package* for better, faster comprehension! Course Mate includes an interactive eBook, interactive learning tools, including Quizzes, Flashcards, Videos, and more. |
