Beskrivning

About 8000 clinical trials are undertaken annually in all areas of medicine, from the treatment of acne to the prevention of cancer. Correct interpretation of the data from such trials depends largely on adequate design and on performing the appropriate statistical analyses. In this book, the statistical aspects of both the design and analysis of trials are described, with particular emphasis on recently developed methods of analysis.

"... given a keen amateur interest and an ability to skip the occasional rather daunting-looking equation this book is surprisingly accessible ... There's an introductory chapter containing an excellent historical overview." Transactions of Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2001
