Primarily aimed at biostatisticians performing pre-clinical and clinical research, this volume outlines statistical methods for drug testing in the context of multiple comparison research. It also explains how to implement much of the pharmaceutical research with statistical software, including SAS and R, and offers code and data sets on the accompanying website. The twenty authors and editors appear to come evenly from academia and the pharmaceutical industry, with two of them from US regulatory agencies.
