Thank you, appreciate your positive feedback.

Great presentation. Do you have any textbook recommendations for learning public health?

Hi, thank you for the comment, really appreciated. There are so many good books, every book provides a different way or perspective (lens) into public health, but if I have to choose 4 books then I would recommend 2 books at BSc level, the simplest book we use is: Jane Wills, 2022 Foundations for Health Promotion, amzn.eu/d/6H5WmjU (used to be Naidoo and Wills in the older versions or second hand), the one that then builds on that one is Green et al (2019) Health Promotion: Planning & Strategies amzn.eu/d/guyAOAF. For postgraduate and Year 3 BSc, Guest et al (2020) Oxford Handbook of Public Health Practice amzn.eu/d/jlBUPrd (nice small one that's handy to take everywhere (aimed at medical professionals but good overview), the other one is a UK-focused one and again a lot packed in as it is what is expected of medical professionals going into to to their postgraduate membership/fellowship applications for the UK Faculty of Public Health. So it covers all the knowledge expected of experience public health professionals working at a high technical proficiency, Lewis et al (2013) Mastering Public Health: A Postgraduate Guide to Examinations and Revalidation amzn.eu/d/1Fd32ct . There are also a lot of books on global public health, the two that are good introductions and give two overlapping perspectives are Sethia and Kumar (2018) Essentials of Global Public Health amzn.eu/d/foW9wKQ and Birn, Pillay and Holtz (2017) Textbook of Global Public Health amzn.eu/d/7THCDF6 .

Hi, I don’t give these out, as if you need to, you can easily create your own or it’s better to write your own notes using your own understanding of the slides.

When you covered incidence (11:07) , you stated the denominator consisted of those with "heart disease" and those without. I thought the denominator with incidence only consisted of the population "at risk" for certain event at the specified time. In your heart disease example in the denominator, those with heart disease would no longer be "at risk" getting cancer and would therefore not be included. Is this not correct?

Yes, you are correct. At the beginning (before exposure) denominator is all the people at risk of heart disease but not those with heart disease already. I was explaining from the end (after exposure has occurred) hence my phrasing, thanks for the feedback, helpful for when I update this video in the future.

I really appreciate you taking the time to reply. Thank you for explaining it. I’m just starting out in epidemiology and it’s all a bit confusing.

Asking questions is the first step no matter how silly we think the question is. Thanks for asking as it also helps me reflect on how I teach epidemiology, I’m still and always learning!
