"…useful in a course in biostatistics." (Journal of Statistical Computation and Simulation, September 2005)

"...a nice overview of statistical topics...an excellent book to have...highly recommend this book for students and researchers..." (Statistical Methods in Medical Research, Vol 13, 2004)

"…interesting and useful…I recommend it as an addition to your statistical library, and if you already own the first edition, it would be worthwhile to update it." (The American Statistician, Vol. 58, No. 2, May 2004)

Dieser Band behandelt eine Reihe statistischer Themen, die bei der Analyse biologischer und medizinischer Daten allgemein Anwendung finden. Diese 2. Auflage wurde komplett überarbeitet, aktualisiert und erweitert. Einige Kapitel sind neu hinzugekommen, u.a. zur multiplen linearen Regression in der biomedizinischen Forschung. Der Stoff ist so gegliedert, dass der Leser den Text unabhängig von der jeweiligen statistischen Methode leicht nach Problemstellungen durchsuchen kann. Mit zahlreichen durchgearbeiteten Beispielen, die detaillierte Lösungsangaben zu Problemen aus der Praxis liefern.
