    Brownson and Petitti's much-needed book bridges the gap between theoretical epidemiology and public health practice, and covers a number of topics not addressed by other epidemiology texts with a focus on methods. This second edition contains a new chapter on the development and use of systematic reviews and one on epidemiology and the law.

All of the chapters are authored by leading experts in the fields of epidemiology and public health, and all are fully revised and updated. The book is intended for practitioners in epidemiology as well as for students in epidemiology and related disciplines that rely on epidemiologic methods and reasoning.

    It is a practical and informative book for use in academic institutions, federal agencies which have significant educational missions, state and local public health agencies, and health care organizations. By providing a resource of immense accessibility to several key audiences, this edition of Applied Epidemiology: Theory to Practice further extends the fields ability to make a real difference on behalf of better health for all.

    The epidemiological perspective is a key component in identifying health needs, examining the pattern of disease problems within and between populations, searching for the causes of disease, formulating health promotion and disease prevention strategies, studying the natural history of disease, and planning and evaluating health services. The relationship between epidemiology and public health has long been a close one. Szklo, M and Nieto, FJ [ 11 ]. Epidemiology studies the causes, transmission, incidence, and prevalence of health and disease in human populations. Does the scope of epidemiology as manifest in these texts extend to providing techniques helpful in ranking and prioritising health problems? By providing a resource of immense accessibility to several key audiences, this edition of Applied Epidemiology: Modern methods of epidemiological enquiry were first developed in the course of investigating outbreaks of infectious diseases in the 19 th century.
