Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Written by one of the top biostatisticians in the field, this volume fills a substantial niche by explaining the ideas behind the analysis of epidemiological data. Requiring only knowledge of fundamental mathematics, it covers the basic material for analyzing data that arise from simple epidemiological studies, including case-control and matched studies. Methodologically, it describes stratification techniques for handling confounding and interaction and the logistic regression model. The author uses a case-study approach, following a few simple examples through several method chapters rather than introducing a different example at each stage.
