This book provides a modern, hands-on guide to the essential concepts and ideas for analyzing data with missing observations in the field of biostatistics. It acknowledges the limitations of established techniques and provides concrete applications of newly developed methods. It covers traditional techniques for missing data inference including likelihood-based, weighted GEE, multiple imputation, and Bayesian methods and applies the methodology to rapidly developing areas of research. The book is ideal for courses on biostatistics at the upper-undergraduate and graduate levels and for health science researchers and applied statisticians.

Review:

"Overall the book is an excellent reference for biostatisticians who are interested in methodological approaches as well as for biostatisticians who prefer the applied side. Several useful examples from clinical trials and health research are carefully selected and analyzed to demonstrate the methods covered in the book. It is also a useful resource for postgraduate students researching missing-data methods and their application." (Biometrical Journal, 1 June 2015)
