In those two main sections, a further grouping is based on the distraction between objects and methods of study. In this framework, the particular topics are addressed both descriptively and quasi-prescriptively, commonly with a number of explicatory annotations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is intended to serve and a \u003ci\u003ehandbook\u003c\/i\u003e for whomever is, in whatever way, concerned with epidemiological or 'meta-epidemiological' clinical research.
