Pressezitat
From the reviews:"This book provides a unique view of the intersection of economics, epidemiology, and social interactions. ... the purpose of this book is to enable scientists in fields related to public health understand economics and vice versa. ... The author does a wonderful job of accomplishing these objectives. ... a valuable tool for scientists in both economics and public health to help them understand how tightly these two fields interact. The author has done an exemplary job presenting the information for readers in both fields." (Angela Jean Schneider, Doody's Book Reviews, November, 2013)
