Description
I am a psychiatric geneticist but my degree is in neuroscience, which means that I now do far more statistics than I have been trained for. I cannot overstate to you the magnitude of the change in my productivity since finding this book. Even after reading the first few chapters, which explain why data analysis is painful and how one can implement a long-term solution, my research moved forward greatly. -- Amber Baum, National Institute of Mental Health I enjoyed reading this book and learned a great deal from it. Modeling with Data filled in a lot of holes in my knowledge, and I think that will be true in general for other readers as well. There is a lot of high-quality and interesting material here. -- Brendan Halpin, University of Limerick
