Statistical Methods for Rates and Proportions

Updated to reflect recent developments in the field of categorical data analysis and theory underlying these methods, the fourth edition of Statistical Methods for Rates and Proportions takes full advantage of modern computing power without losing the elegant simplicity that made the prior editions so popular with students and practitioners alike. New sections throughout cover the non-superiority design for Phase II clinical trials; innovative study designs for adaptive clinical trials; selection procedures for identifying the best treatment; new methods for sparse categorical data; and methods for unfriendly count data.
