About this book
Reviews
From the reviews of the fourth edition:
"Readership: Students, physicians and investigators interested in statistical methods for clinical trials. This book was originally written for a course in medical statistics given in the EU sponsored program European Interuniversity Diploma of Pharmaceutical Medicine starting in the year 2000. … it has been expanded and updated in order to serve as a guide and reference-text to students, physicians and investigators." (Andreas Rosenblad, International Statistical Review, Vol. 77 (3), 2009)
“The book is written for students in health care and physicians and can be viewed as a guide and reference textbook. … an important contribution to the clinical trials and medical statistics community. … The book’s main strength is its presentation, which deepens the knowledge and understanding of applications of statistical methods and analyses of clinical trials. … The many good motivating examples make the book a useful resource for instructors teaching introductory statistics courses. I enjoyed reading this book, and you will too.” (Technometrics, Vol. 52 (2), May, 2010)
