". . . the writing makes this book interesting to all levels of students. Bobko tackles tough issues in an easy way but provides references for more complex and complete treatment of the subject. . . . there is a familiarity and love of the material that radiates through the words." -- Malcolm James Ree "The greatest strength of this book is the way in which the material is presented. I particularly liked the clarity in the way that formulae were presented and that they are explained in terms of what each part contributes and the effect it has." -- Rebecca Walwyn * Statistical Methods in Medical Research *
