This book really does cover everything you ever wanted to know about logistic regression … with updates available on the author’s website. Hilbe, a former national athletics champion, philosopher, and expert in astronomy, is a master at explaining statistical concepts and methods. Readers familiar with his other expository work will know what to expect—great clarity.The book provides considerable detail about all facets of logistic regression. No step of an argument is omitted so that the book will meet the needs of the reader who likes to see everything spelt out, while a person familiar with some of the topics has the option to skip "obvious" sections. The material has been thoroughly road-tested through classroom and web-based teaching. … The focus is on helping the reader to learn and understand logistic regression. The audience is not just students meeting the topic for the first time, but also experienced users. I believe the book really does meet the author’s goal … .—Annette J. Dobson, Biometrics, June 2012Overall this is a comprehensive book, which will provide a very useful resource and handbook for anyone whose work involves modelling binary data.—David J. Hand, International Statistical Review (2011), 79… useful as a textbook in a course on logistic regression.—Andreas Rosenblad, Technometrics, May 2011
