Epidemiology plays an all-important role in many areas of medicine, from discovering the relationship between tobacco smoking and lung cancer, to documenting the impact of diet, the environment, and exercise on general health, to tracking the origin and spread of new epidemics such as Swine Flu. It is truly a vital field, central to the health of society, but it is often poorly understood, largely due to misrepresentations in the media. In this Very Short Introduction, an internationally recognized authority on epidemiology, Dr. Rodolfo Saracci, provides a wealth of information on this key field, dispelling some of the myths surrounding the study of epidemiology, and explaining what epidemiology is and how vital it is to the discovery, control, and prevention of disease in world populations. Dr. Saracci provides a general explanation of the principles behind clinical trials, and explains the nature of basic statistics concerning disease. He also looks at the ethical and political issues related to obtaining and using information concerning patients, and trials involving placebos.

Must have for a hot summer!
My mom saw my aunt using it and was impressed, so she bought it for herself and my sister-in-law. They both love how gentle it feels on the skin and that it’s organic and effective.

Great for sensitive skin
This was great to take on vacation. I went to Cancun and used this on my face. Never got burned. I have super sensitive skin and this didn’t cause any reactions. I’m also sensitive to smells and I don’t notice anything with this product. Will purchase again.

Buyer beware!
Awful! I sprayed my face with it and immediately felt my skin burning. I opened the bottle and noticed all that was in it was a yellowish fluid that smelled like straight rubbing alcohol. My face still has marks on it days later from whatever the substance was. I have used this brand before, and never experienced anything like this. The product was either years past expiration, or liquid was replaced with some kind of chemical.
