Epidemiology textbooks

[ftcnt]

Can people recommend or suggest some good reference texts for epidemiology. I'm currently taking an introductory course but the professor didn't assign a textbook.

Thanks

Epidemiologic Methods: Studying the Occurrence of Disease by Koepsell and Weiss is supposed to be a good one. I am going to UW next year and they use that (the professors teach there).

that's a pretty good text book (posted above), i took that course at UW as an undergrad and had a pretty good learning experience with it.

I like Gordis, too, for its brevity and readability.
