Description

This collection of papers addresses many of the broader concerns of epidemiology, such as the logic of judgement about relations between presumed causes and effects, and the social context of the epidemiologic studies and of health in general. The papers are grouped in six sections, each preceded by an introduction that discusses their web of common themes.

Table of Contents

  • Epidemiologists in society
  • Matters of logic and judgement
  • Matters of description, analysis and confounding
  • Health and society: a macrosocial view
  • Health and society: a microsocial view
  • Health and society: individual development.
