Statistical Meta-Analysis with Applications
"The strength of this book is certainly the detailed development and presentation of inference for normal fixed and random effects models as applied in meta-analysis and similar studies, such as inter-laboratory studies. A particularly well done part of the book centers on homogeneity testing and on confidence interval estimation of the so-called heterogeneity parameter in the standard random effects model." (Journal of Biopharmaceutical Statistics, January 2010)"The authors have written a good guide to a broad section of the methods available for statistical meta-analysis." (Mathematical Reviews, 2009)"[The authors], active researchers themselves, have done a commendable job in writing this introductory book noted for its clarity and style of presentation and coverage of some totally new topics."
