Book Description

081382639X 978-0813826394 May 15, 1999 1
A comprehensive, alphabetized dictionary of terms used in veterinary epidemiology, this book is an expanded translation of the only dictionary of veterinary epidemiology in the world, Glossaire d'epidemiologie animale.

An invaluable reference and teaching tool for anyone with an interest in animal health issues, the book will enhance communication on the numerous issues arising with the new animal-based industries and expanded markets for animal products. With this in mind, the editors have extended the scope of the book beyond strictly epidemiologic terms to include the basic nomenclature of economics and biostatistics, two important disciplines associated with epidemiology and animal health. The dictionary's international perspective should make it particularly useful as population-based problem solving becomes a global concern.

Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

This dictionary is an expanded translation of Glossaire d’epidemiologie animale, published by Editions du Point Veterinaire, the only dictionary of veterinary epidemiology in the world. The Dictionary of Veterinary Epidermiology includes a vastly greater terminology and is liberally illustrated with additional figures and tables. This volume provides a comprehensive A-to-Z listing of terms used in references to veterinary epidemiology.

Veterinary medicine students and practitioners, animal scientists, government employees involved in animal regulation worldwide, and veterinary epidemiologists will find this book to be a valuable resource.

3.0 out of 5 stars Dictionary of Veterinary Epidemiology, June 30, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Dictionary of Veterinary Epidemiology (Paperback)
This book was a disappointment. It is good for an epidemiologist looking for peripheral information, but not for a non epidemiologist looking for detailed epidemiological information. It lacks many basic terms and concepts.
