This book combines the authors experiences on the topic and brings out a wealth of new information relevant to the study of meta analysis. Applications ranging from business to education to environment to health sciences in both univariate and multivariate cases are presented alongside and subservient to theory.

Mehr als zehnjährige Erfahrung in der Verbesserung von Methoden zur Meta-Analyse fließen in dieses Werk ein, wobei vollkommen neue Aspekte und Möglichkeiten zur Verbindung einzelner Verfahren aufgezeigt werden. Auch die elektronischen Verarbeitungsmöglichkeiten von Daten hierzu wird besprochen.

Pressestimmen

"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." ( Choice , April 2009)
