• Clear, concise explanations of important concepts
  This is a great introductory book. Unlike previous editions, the diagrams and tables are in color which makes them easier to read. Gordis offers easy-to-understand explanations of concepts and provides interesting real-world examples to illustrate key points.

• Excellent
  Excellent book on Epidemiology, very easy to read. I strongly recommend it for those seeking a strong foundation in the subject.

  The visual material of this book (graphs and charts) are much better in this version, and they're in COLOR!
