Reihe: Wiley Series in Probability and Statistics

The new edition adds a chapter on multiple linear regression inbiomedical research, with sections including the multiple linearregressions model and least squares; the ANOVA table, parameterestimates, and confidence intervals; partial f-tests; polynomialregression; and analysis of covariance.
* Organized by problem rather than method, so it guides readers tothe correct technique for solving the problem at hand.
