Recenzje

"Overall speaking, this book delivered what the authors hoped to achieve—"Confidence Intervals for Discrete Data in Clinical Research." This book provides a comprehensive review of existingmethods in constructing confidence intervals for binary and count data because these are the discrete data most frequently used in clinical research. [...] This book not only serves the readers they it intended to serve but can also help potentially a much broader readership. [...] One strength of this book is that it covers a wide range of methods with very good reference articles [...]. This feature makes this book to be one of the very useful references on this topic. For practitioners engaged in clinical research, epidemiology, or public health, this book can be a very helpful tool."
