必要な所を読んでみて理解が深まりましたが、実際的にどう使うのかというpracticalな点が不十分で、もう少し詳しい本が必要になりそうです。
ごく初歩のことは知っているが、それ以上のことはあまり知らないという方、医学関係などの方はとてもよい読み物と思います。これをステップにして次に進めばよいのではないでしょうか。
As an intermediate text, it's more substantial than Hennekin's Epidemiology in Medicine, but not as dense as Rothman and Greelands' Modern Epidemiology. The text reads very easily and gets to the point. In particular, the authors did an exceptional job at laying out the different types of study designs with illustrations that make conceptual sense, as well as, pulling them all together. The discussions on bias are also very helpful, and I like the way that they sectioned off the different types of bias. The book also goes over some of the application of both classical and multivariate methods, and highlights the usefulness and caveats of each method.
As a fervent student of epidemiology, I highly recommend this book to anyone wanting a clearer grasp of epi concepts.
The sentences are unnecessarily long, full of unnecessary prepositions and fluff, redundant, and they repeat themselves (see what I mean?).
The following example:
"Consequently, and as underscored in the sections that follow, the interpretation of the multiple regression coefficients is similar for all these models, varying only with regard to the outcome variable."
Could simply be:
Consequently, the multiple regression coefficients for all these models have similar interpretations, varying only by outcome variable.
This textbook gets a 5 for content and a 2 for style.
