An exellent book...

I've got this book as a reference for the course I'm taking in school of public health. I got it and I finished it in 3-4 days. An excellent book, very easy to read and follow. Excellent surveys and very usefull points. I highly recommend this book for whoever that thinks (s)he want to become a teacher, a trainer and above all trains the trainer. As a medical resident, I used lessons I've learned from this book and the result was excellent. I'm looking for other books written by the author.
