Analyzing Medical Data Using S-PLUS

Each chapter consists of basic statistical theory, simple examples of S-PLUS code, plus more complex examples of S-PLUS code, and exercises. All data sets are taken from genuine medical investigations and will be available on a web site. The examples in the book contain extensive graphical analysis to highlight one of the prime features of S-PLUS. Written with few details of S-PLUS and less technical descriptions, the book concentrates solely on medical data sets, demonstrating the flexibility of S-PLUS and its huge advantages, particularly for applied medical statisticians.
