'The book is well laid out and concepts are very well explained by making effective use of diagrams and geometric representations. There are many analyses of example data sets to ilustrate the application the methods and the interpretation of the output'. Biometrics 59, 200-209, March2003., "Grafen and Hails have written a very nice book...many examples also serveto highlight design or analysis errors that are commonly made and encourageconstructive critism: learning from mistakes is, I think, a very powerfulapproach."
