4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting and easy to read, September 26, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Disease: Identification, Prevention and Control (Paperback)
This textbook is interesting and easy-to-read. The chapters are broken down nicely and give good overviews of disease while not getting too technical.

5.0 out of 5 stars Diseases - Public Health, February 26, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Disease: Identification, Prevention and Control (Paperback)
I bought this book for another senior level public health class and found it incredibly easy to read. It is succinct and to the point. Even if you never take the class, this is an excellent 'quick' reference book on diseases, the etiology, causes, etc. I think if you have never read anything like this you will find the informatino fascinating.
