Missing Data in Clinical Studies provides a comprehensive
account of the problems arising when data from clinical and related
studies are incomplete, and presents the reader with approaches to
effectively address them. The text provides a critique of
conventional and simple methods before moving on to discuss more
advanced approaches. The authors focus on practical and modeling
concepts, providing an extensive set of case studies to illustrate
the problems described.

Missing Data in Clinical Studies has been developed
through a series of courses and lectures. Its practical approach
will appeal to applied statisticians and biomedical researchers, in

public health organisations. Graduate students of biostatistics
will also find much of benefit.
