Adaptive design theory and implementation using SAS and R

There are explosions of adaptive design papers in past several years. This book alone has included about 400 references.

The book, going by the table of contents, provides a fairly comprehensive overview of the field of adaptive designs in drug development. After having read it, I am somewhat disappointed.

This book just came out but I know a lot about it and about the author before I even got a copy. In November of last year Mark Chang coauthored a book in this Chapman and Hall series that I reviewed with praise because of the importance of the topic and the way it was demonstrated to work in a variety of real problems in pharmaceutical clinical trials.
