A NEW AND ESSENTIAL RESOURCE FOR THE PRACTICE OF EPIDEMIOLOGY AND
PUBLIC HEALTH The CDC Field Epidemiology Manual is a definitive
guide to investigating acute public health events on the ground and
in real time. Assembled and written by experts from the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention as well as other leading public
health agencies, it offers current and field-tested guidance for
every stage of an outbreak investigation - from identification to
intervention and other core considerations along the way. Modeled
after Michael Gregg's seminal book Field Epidemiology, this CDC
manual ushers investigators through the core elements of field
work, including many of the challenges inherent to outbreaks:
working with multiple state and federal agencies or multinational
organizations; legal considerations; and effective utilization of
an incident-management approach. Additional coverage includes: *
Updated guidance for new tools in field investigations, including
the latest technologies for data collection and incorporating data
from geographic information systems (GIS) * Tips for investigations
in unique settings, including healthcare and community-congregate
sites * Advice for responding to different types of outbreaks,
including acute enteric disease; suspected biologic or toxic
agents; and outbreaks of violence, suicide, and other forms of
injury For the ever-changing public health landscape, The CDC Field
Epidemiology Manual offers a new, authoritative resource for
effective outbreak response to acute and emerging threats. ***
Oxford University Press will donate a portion of the proceeds from

sole entity created by Congress to mobilize philanthropic and
private-sector resources to support the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention's critical health protection work. To learn more
