Booknews
A textbook for part of a graduate survey course, courses of a quarter or semester, and focused short courses for working professionals. Assuming a solid foundation in linear regression methodology and contingency table analysis, biostaticians Hosmer (U. of Massachusetts- Amherst) and Lemeshow (Ohio State U.) introduce the logistic regression model and its use in methods for modeling the relationship between a categorical outcome variable and a set of covariates. The first edition appeared about a decade ago, and the second incorporates theoretical and computational developments since then. Annotation c.
