Using real data from published sources, this engaging and lucid casebook shows how statistical tools can be used to analyze important epidemiologic issues. Its 18 cases are described succinctly and the wide variety of methods used to analyze them are then discussed in detail. The author's focus on describing, interpreting and presenting results will set this book apart from other texts.
