 Good book June 26, 2009
Audra Jensen (Idaho, USA)
I purchased this bood as part of the requirments for my Masters degree in food safety. I feel it is very well written and covers the points very well with many examples. Every word is of importance and necessary. For a study book for epidemiology - this is a great book.
 Gold book!! December 21, 2008
Mariza V. Tancredi (BRAZIL)
HENNEKENS is a very didatic book in Epidemiology Methodology, easy and simple to read and understand and very complete. All advanced courses in Epidemiology must recomend it.
Quite engrossing for a small textbook July 24, 2007
Gisselle Gonzalez (miami, fl United States)
This book is a clear, concise introduction to the use of epidemiology in medicine. It incorporates modern ideas in epidemiological thinking, providing an overview that is up-to-date and thorough. It delivers a lot of information without being dry, and is engrossing enough to read straight through instead of being another textbook to thumb through.
A brilliant introduction to medical epidemiology March 27, 2001

Although having graduated some time ago I just keep returning to this well written and crystal-clear undergraduate book on basic epidemiology. This explains clearly also the most basic and important statistical approaches in analyzing data, although leaving multivariate analyses mostly out. However, that might be considered as a virtue as well beacuse the book stays at a very simple level and thus not scare you off it.
For any student on epidemiology and biostatistics April 12, 2000

One should not be afraid regarding the edition (1987). It is still a powerfull tool for any student on epidemiology or biostatistics. Despite being not a huge book, it is comprehensive enough for students of any level and perhaps as a companion to established professionals. You can read it page by page as a novel or search it for details in the planing and execution of an epidemiological research. The author is well known for his work on important trials in medicine and that makes him an expert on both theorethical and on a practical basis.
