by Daniel Zelterman, Ph.D. ’83, professor of public health (Cambridge University Press) This textbook in basic statistics for undergraduates or first-year graduate students using an integrated software system known as SAS introduces linear regression models and describes other linear models, including Poisson regression, logistic regression, proportional hazards regression, and nonparametric regression. To illustrate these concepts, Zelterman draws on numerous examples from news and current events, with an emphasis on health issues. All data sets and SAS programs used in the book are available from the book’s website.
