Epidemiologists are scientists who isolate the cause of disease and track the mode of transmition. Sometimes the cases are dramatic, like the case in France when healthy infants suddenly developed rashes, fell sick and died--the cause at first unknown. Noted scientists Stolley and Laksy show how epidemiologists go about investigating the outbreak and spread of contagious diseases, and also how they are tackling the great health risks of our times: heart disease. cancer, environmental illnesses and occupational illnesses. They begin with an historical overview and trace the course of disease events and their investigative methods and some results from the 17th to the 20th century. They show how epidemiology has moved beyond the exploration of the biological cause of disease to the workings of the health care system itself--to evaluate what works and what doesn't. Other topics covered are new methods of studying disease, focusing on lung cancer; the risk factors of heart disease; medicines that backfires; screening populations, and other topics. 242 pages. 8.75 x 9.5 inches. 1995, Scientific American Library, Distributed By Freeman and Co., USA.…

Soft cover. Condition: As New. 1st Edition. In Excellent Used Condition. - For More Information On Condition. - Please See All Photos. - In Investigating Disease Patterns, Noted Scientists Paul Stolley And Tamar Lasky Show Us How Epidemiologists Go About Investigating The Outbreak And Spread Of Contagious Diseases And, Also, How They Are Tackling The Greatest Health Threats Of Our Time: Heart Disease, Cancer, And Environmental And Occupational Illnesses. Beginning With An Historical Overview, The Authors Trace The Growth Of Epidemiology, From The Recording Of Symptoms And The Counting Of Events In The Seventeenth Century, To The Development Of A Powerful Investigative Method Used To Uncover The Sources Not Only Of Infectious Diseases, With Their Simple Origin In A Pathogenic Microorganism, But Also Diseases, Like Cancer, Of More Complicated Origin And Many Contributing Factors. They Describe In Fascinating Detail How, Like A Detective, The Modern Epidemiologist Pursues The Answers To Crucial Questions About Who Becomes Ill, Then Applies Scientific Tools Such As Statistical Analysis And Controlled Trials To Verify Those Answers. In So Doing, Epidemiologists Both Find Ways To Stop Specific Outbreaks Of Disease And Deepen Our Understanding Of The Disease Process. Stolley And Lasky Also Show How Epidemiology Has Moved Beyond Its Exploration Of The Biological Causes Of Disease, To Study The Workings Of The Health Care System Itself - To Evaluate What Works And What Doesn't, From A Public Health Campaign Such As Advertising To Encourage The Use Of Seat Belts, To A Surgical Procedure, Or A Screening Test Such As Mammography.…
