Abstract
[Extract] The field of epidemiology is a science and it remains "one of the many contributors to guiding action" in public health.¹ The field is crowded with published books with over 9500 books of varying publication dates on a recent Amazon.com search.² However, few of these books are relevant to the Australasian context and none appear to be recent. The 1st edition of Epidemiology fulfils the need for a reference textbook in this field relevant to the region and one which will no doubt establish itself as one of the leading reference textbooks in Australasia in the field of epidemiology.
