Praise for the first edition: "One of the main strengths of the text is the bridge it provides between traditional analysis of variance and regression models and the more recently developed class of mixed models...Each chapter is well-motivated by at least one carefully chosen example...demonstrating the broad applicability of mixed models in many different disciplines...most readers will likely learn something new, and those previously unfamiliar with mixed models will obtain a solid

foundation on this topic." Kerrie Nelson University of South Carolina, in American Statistician, 2007 [Publisher's Text]
