About the Book

Epidemiology, a vital tool of public health, plays a paramount role in guiding public health action and rationalizing its approaches. Surprisingly, this is not one of the most preferred disciplines for specialization, among the medical students, in developing countries where its applications are most needed. For building capacity, there is a need of reinforcing the basic concepts for better understanding of its applications, not only among medical and healthcare undergraduates, but also amongst public health managers working at different levels.

The author, through the book 'Basics of Epidemiology- Concepts Made Simple', has attempted to present the basics in a simplistic manner, which will help students and public health managers to develop applications based conceptual clarity. As an essential companion, the book will be of immense value for them. The unique feature is its simple presentation, almost in a conversational tone, with plenty of relevant examples.
About the Author: Dr. Anil Mishra, the author, has worked in the field of public health for over two decades, and has engaged with all working echelons of the public health system. Some of the organizations where he has rendered his services include the Indian Army, World Health Organization, CARE, PATH, Save the Children, IPE Global, BD India, ORC Macro International and ICF International, USA. He also taught public health to the students of healthcare management.

The author has played an important technical advisory role in two consecutive rounds of the world's largest Demographic and Health Survey- the National Family Health Survey of India. For providing technical support, he was specially invited to the Technical Advisory Group for Annual Health Surveys of India, by the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare (MOHFW), and to the Central Surveillance Team for HIV Sentinel Surveillance, by the National AIDS Control Organization, MOHFW, Govt. of India.

Dr. Anil, as an expert task force member for the Coalition for Sustainable Nutrition Security in India, contributed in developing the leadership agenda for action to address malnutrition in the country. He was engaged with various projects funded by international organizations like USAID, DFID, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (GFATM).

Author's books on topics like Biostatistics and Health Economics are in the pipeline and would be released towards the end of year 2018.

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
