Editorial Reviews

Review

"The great value of this book is that it presents, in an easily understood form, the methods which will be needed in most situations" - Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health

"...this is a superb book, full of useful information.

...The book is logically organized into 18 short, highly readable chapters.

...as a teaching tool, it is invaluable...this book is a handy reference to have on one's bookshelf with nearly all confidence interval formulae organized in one place.

...In summary, Statistics with Confidence and the CIA software are resources that every biostatistician could benefit from."
