Analysis of Quantal Response Data

Zusatztext "This book is a welcome addition to the analysis of dose-response quantal bioassays which are so important in toxicology and pharmacology...it contdains the best collection and description of all known methods in bioassays."-Short Book Reviews of the ISI"...a thorough and readable reference..."-Technometrics"I believe that this book should be in the library of all applied statisticians...an excellent reference. It serves as a model for books on statistical methods in special areas and is a worthy successor to Finney's work! which has dominated the field for so long."-Journal of the American Statistical Association Informationen zum Autor Morgan\, Byron J.T. Klappentext This book describes the new developments for the analysis of quantal response data, and emphasizes the links between the various different areas. The main emphasis in the examples which illustrate the methodology will be on the evaluation and testing of substances, mainly drugs, for use in humans.
