Epidemiology

Though the book focuses primarily on the application of epidemiology in the healthcare setting, these concepts translate easily to public health applications, as well.

Evaluation
Schwandt, T. A. (2005). The centrality of practice to evaluation. American Journal of Evaluation, 26 (1): 95 - 105.This article discusses two different ways in which notions of evidence based, practice, and evaluation are related and suggests what a genuinely practice-oriented approach to evaluation entails.
