Ever wonder how we know what we know? Especially in medical research? How do we know that some diets are probably more healthful than others? How do we know that smoking is likely to cause lung cancer? You might be surprised to learn that it's not all about scientists doing experiments in labs. Much of what we know comes from population sciences. And epidemiology is the mother of all population health sciences!
Nothing To Do With Skin is an introduction to the science of population epidemiology, written by a well known, award winning, senior epidemiologist. The book is written for the absolute beginner, and includes a description of study designs, some of the common biases encountered, how to distinguish between correlation and causation, and an overview of key measures of association-- all with almost no mention of mathematics or statistics. This book is ideal for students starting out in a health research field, as well as the interested lay person who is eager to learn the basics of medical research. The author, Dr Raywat Deonandan, is a well known epidemiologist in Canada. As well as being an accomplished and widely published scholar, he has multiple teaching and writing awards, and is a common fixture in the media. He has written this book to share his love of epidemiology with the world.Author Biography
Dr Raywat Deonandan is a widely published Epidemiologist and a faculty member of the University of Ottawa, as well as a member of the Board of Directors of the Canadian Society for Epidemiology and Biostatistics.
