Four years ago (2002), I (DGK) authored a unique educational program, ActivEpi (Springer Publishers), developed in CD-ROM format to provide a multimedia interactive “electronic textbook” on basic principles and methods of epidemiology. In 2003, the ActivEpi Companion Text, authored by myself (DGK), KM Sullivan and ND Barker and also published by Springer, was developed to provide a hardcopy of the material contained in the ActivEpi CD-ROM. The CD-ROM contains 15 chapters, with each consisting of a collection of “activities” including narrated expositions, interactive study questions, quizzes, homework questions, and web links to relevant references on the Internet.
