Epidemiologists, public health practitioners, and sociologists find much of value in this carefully selected presentation, which draws on the author's wide knowledge and experience.Susser, Mervyn W. is the author of 'Epidemiology, Health and Society Selected Papers' with ISBN 9780195050202 and ISBN 0195050207.
