      Nueva edición de este texto que ya en su séptima edición se presenta como la referencia para el conocimiento de los principios y conceptos básicos de la epidemiología en la que se refleja cómo se practica la epidemiología hoy en día, con capítulos que progresan desde la observación y el desarrollo de hipótesis hasta la recopilación y el análisis de datos. Esta séptima edición, al igual que la previa, consta de tres secciones. La sección 1 aborda cómo se utiliza la epidemiología para comprender la salud y el desarrollo de enfermedades en las poblaciones, la sección 2 detalla los métodos utilizados por los epidemiólogos principalmente para atribuir asociacio­nes entre una exposición hipotética (riesgo) y un resul­tado de salud y la sección 3 aborda las aplicaciones cotidianas de la epidemiología en la salud pública. Se ha continuado aplicando el uso que el profe­sor Gordis hacía de las ilustraciones y ejemplos para demostrar cómo se ponen en práctica las cuestiones y principios epidemiológicos. Se han actualizado los ejemplos ampliamente y hemos añadido otros nuevos a lo largo de todo el texto. Muchos de los capítulos pre­vios se han editado y actualizado exhaustivamente y algunos de ellos se han ampliado en gran medida. Igualmente se ofrece una amplia cobertura del Covid19. Incluye preguntas al final del capítulo para una rápida autoevaluación y un glosario de terminología genética. La nueva edición ofrece acceso a la totalidad del e-book y a un conjunto de 200 preguntas adicionales a través de la plataforma e-book+ (contenido íntegramente en inglés).

      Engineered Biocomposites for Dye Adsorption compiles and discusses applications, mechanisms, and performance evaluation of various biocomposites during dye adsorption. The book analyzes the techno-economic and life-cycle assessment of biocomposites for dye adsorption. It highlights different adsorbent materials for dye degradation and resource recovery ranging from but not limited to activated carbon, biochar, hydrochar, pyrochar, waste fruits, waste industrial sludge, geological materials, graphene, carbon nanotubes, MXene, polymers, metals, nanomaterials, and metal–organic frameworks.The book shows how combining materials such as biocomposites significantly yields better dye adsorption than a single material and addresses conventional issues with adsorption such as adsorbent cost, effectiveness, regeneration, and sustainability and provides insights into the preparation and use of new adsorbent materials for dye removal from aqueous solutions. The information contained in this book will increase readers’ fundamental knowledge, guide future researchers, and can be incorporated into future works on experimental studies on dye adsorption. As such it serves as an indispensable resource and reference work for engineers, wastewater specialists, biotechnologists, chemists, microbiologists, researchers, and students studying industrial effluents, biomass, bioproducts, and adsorption processes.
