5.0 out of 5 starsA excelent book to the beginner
By pompilio@netserv.com.br on October 25, 1997
Format: Paperback
Clinical Epidemiology has been considered the new 'Basic Science' to medical students. This book offers a excelent approach to main problems found by beginners in this vast field of knowledge like how to deal with Statistics and with the huge number of papers published. With a easy language this book is good option to get started in this branch of Medicine now called the 'Science of the Art'.

5.0 out of 5 starsEssential textbook for health care professionals!
By A Customer on January 28, 2003
Format: Paperback
Clinical Epidemiology has become a core element in the understanding and treatment of human illness. Defined as a method of generating valid conclusions from clinical observations, clinical epidemiology arms health practitioners with skills essential for modern health care. As a Physical Therapist (PT) I am often asked to render a diagnosis based on clinical hypotheses with "soft" measurements like pain, distress and function loss; how can I ensure that my diagnosis is correct? Traditional practice encourages the health care student to believe that knowing enough anatomy & physiology will somehow optimise health care outcomes. This book not only challenges that view but it also arms the reader with the knowledge and applicable skills to interpret research and also to ensure that any work you carry out is robust and in keeping with EBM principles. A highly recommended text and great value for money. A must for lecturers, student PT's and anyone who wonders how they can improve their critical analysis of health care practice. Don't treat patients without a copy on your shelf (assuming of course you read it...osmosis is NOT a recognised learning tool).

5.0 out of 5 starsclinical epidemiology 'The Essentials' 4th edition by Fletcher
By Bon on February 23, 2012
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
The 'Essentials' 4th edition is an excellent book. This is my first class in epidemiology and am finding the examples in the book very useful. There is a alot of new vocabulary and they have all been bolded in the book for easy reading. The answers to the questions are in the back of the book which is nice.
