A dictionary of epidemiology / Miquel Porta Oxford : Oxford University Press, 2014343 tr. ; cm.if i had to limit my professional bookcase to a single volume, i would choose
this dictionary. With many new entries, updates, and other refinements in the
fourth edition, the dictionary has grown from the original slim pocket book
into a mature and substantial volume. John Last and his collaborators must be
congratulated for their extraordinary devotion and productivity over the past
20 years, from which epidemiologists around the world have benefited.
The dictionary’s authority stems from its international recognition. It is an
immediate source for students and practitioners to verify their understanding of
the increasing number of technical words in epidemiologic practice. It clarifies
concepts that may not have been understood in class, fills many gaps in anyone’s
education, and jogs the memory of near-forgotten terms. It has no equal in the
field of epidemiology.
The International Epidemiological Association is proud to have had such a
long-standing association with the dictionary. We all hope this relationship will
continue indefinitely in the future, even though John Last, being mortal, will not.
He has set a high standard for his successors. We are grateful that he has prepared
the way so well to ensure that the dictionary remains of contemporary relevance
in the coming decades.
