APPENDICES
"The presentation is consistently excellent. One, the writing is
lucid and organized in a way that should be very natural for the
clinical reader. Two, the text requires no background in
mathematics and uses a minimum of symbols. And, three, the
methodological concepts and clinical issues are well integrated
through a number of carefully prepared and comprehensive
examples."
