I've found this one interesting: "The Woman Who Knew Too Much" by Gayle Greene.

This book tells the story of Alice Stewart (physician and epidemiologist), who with her assistant, connected fetal x-rays with the risk of cancer. There's a good discussion on risk and epidemiologic process--but it's as much a study on social issues, the struggles of female scientists and leadership. The book isn't written by an epidemiologist, so the details aren't too technical, which might frustrate some, but the narrative is strong and much can be learned from its pages.
