Book Reviews of Sample Size Calculations in Clinical Research, Second Edition (Chapman & Hall/Crc Biostatistics Series)

Book Review: Requires editing
Summary: 3 Stars

I found the errors in the book absolutely infuriating! Many typos in the text from the first edition are maintained in the second edition. The typos in both text and formulas in the expanded information in the second edition together with gaps in the development of the information made it necessary to consult other sources to figure out what's going on.

Summary of Sample Size Calculations in Clinical Research, Second Edition (Chapman & Hall/Crc Biostatistics Series)

Focusing on an integral part of pharmaceutical development, Sample Size Calculations in Clinical Research, Second Edition presents statistical procedures for performing sample size calculations during various phases of clinical research and development. It provides sample size formulas and procedures for testing equality, noninferiority/superiority, and equivalence.

A comprehensive and unified presentation of statistical concepts and practical applications, this book highlights the interactions between clinicians and biostatisticians, includes a well-balanced summary of current and emerging clinical issues, and explores recently developed statistical methodologies for sample size calculation. Whenever possible, each chapter provides a brief history or background, regulatory requirements, statistical designs and methods for data analysis, real-world examples, future research developments, and related references.

One of the few books to systematically summarize clinical research procedures, this edition contains new chapters that focus on three key areas of this field. Incorporating the material of this book in your work will help ensure the validity and, ultimately, the success of your clinical studies.
