Recenzii

"The author leads the reader smoothly through the chapters of Part I and II, giving exactly as much information as is needed. This is the biggest advantage of the book. The new information and the R codes are given in a short but comprehensive and thoughtful way. With few words, the reader receives a message which is clear and easy to understand."
- Kinga Salapa, International Society for Clinical Biostatistics, 72, 2021
