Editorial Reviews

Review

“This is a book of massive erudition, of great value to the career statistician but not much help to those of us who rank statistics lower in our priorities.” (Primary Dental Care and Team in Practice, 1 April 2011)

A “must” for dental researchers and graduates students in dentistry! January 20, 2009

This is the first solid biostatistical text completely devoted to oral health research. It is not only an excellent introductory biostatistical text, but it is well-written with lots of problems and examples from real-life dental research that will certainly engage the interest of graduate students in the dental sciences as well as being an excellent resource for even highly experienced dental researchers. I highly recommend this book for use in the core biostatistical course for graduate students in dental schools everywhere! I also strongly recommend this book to anyone engaged in dental research on a regular basis.
