Product Review
a wonderfully succinct and lucid text that is at the same time accessible to the novice reader and useful to the experienced practitioner I am unaware of any comparable books on the subject of occupational epidemiology that have been published in the past decade. This book is an excellent and comprehensive text and reference book and, like the first edition, it is quite suitable for both and introductory and an intermediate audience it was with great interest that I opened up this new edition, and there was no disappointment. The authors have done a masterful job of improving this already outstanding book, and I think that even owners of the first edition are likely to want to add this second edition to their libraries. American Journal of Epidemiology
