This is not a textbook. Rather it is a collection of articles written by the author and his collaborators. Some articles are more interesting than others. Some are more difficult to read as they required certain background for the issues that the author was trying to address. Overall, it is a good book and a great reminder that there are lots of assumptions made in statistics. You need to revisit all these assumptions on every problem you encounter. Don't just believe what newspaper headlines say.

I am not familiar with all the authors, but this book has Freedman's finger prints all over it.

In the book, many of our known social problems are reviewed and discussed with a deeper statistical view than earlier writers on the topics. For example, the evidence that the outbreak of the Guillaume Barre syndrome was strongly related to vaccines is shown to be weaker than many have believed.

For many scientists, this book will be very interesting.
