Reviews
IStatistical Methods in Environmental Epidemiology is primed to be a valuable resource for a wide range of audiences. The book provides a flexible foundation for an introductory course and can easily be supplemented with additional dashes of theory, computing, or case studies as needed for the particular venue. We are thankful to the book's sole author, whose substantial effort has produced a broad-reaching and forward-looking contribution to environmental epidemiology. * American Journal of Epidemiology *
