Introduces the theory, techniques, and applications of exact statistical inference for categorical data. Using elementary concepts and actual data applications, this work brings information formally buried in specialists' journals. It also includes topics ranging from the one-binomial case to stratified 2x2 tables and dose-response data. "The book's infrastructure makes it a good candidate as a teaching resource. The chapters offer detailed worked example. Furthermore, each chapter includes exercises . . . some practitioners in discrete data analysis also will find this book useful." - In Technometrics, August 2008, Vol. 50, No. 3
