Multivariate Methods in Epidemiology
ISBN: 9780195124408 / Angielski / Twarda / 440 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The basis for much of medical public health practice comes from epidemiological research.

These are then extended to model fitting, and the common threads of logic that bind the two analytic strategies together are revealed. Each chapter provides a descriptive rationale for the method, a worked...
