Opis

This book is intended to present an up-to-date and comprehensive account of mathematical statistics problems that occur in toxicology. The aim is to introduce a wide variety of statistical models that are currently utilized for dose-response modeling and risk analysis. 

Recenzje

"Statistical Models in Toxicology is written by an author with extensive experienceworking in toxicology data analysis and in collaborating with colleagues at the National Center for Toxicological Research. (...) This book provides an introduction to a broad range of toxicological responses and the statistical analyses that might be used to analyze them. I appreciated the historical foundations provided for many of these analyses along with the discussion of modern methods being used for analyzing toxicological experiments for risk assessment including model averaging.
