5.0 out of 5 stars Great book!

One would think there was an accompanying main text to go along with this "guide." Well, there is not. This is the main text, which makes it even more inappropriate for someone who is not majoring in epidemiology or biostatistics. So, don't expect this book to "guide" you through learning how to do biostatistics or epidemiology. You should have previous instruction in those areas or have a good instructor who will fill in the gaps for you.
