"Statistical complex survey analysis is a means to analyse the results, and gain information about a large population based on a complex survey of a sample of that population. A complex survey is a sample survey that divides the population into subgroups and collecting information from clusters within each subgroup and combining the results. Since the publication of the first edition in 1994, the field has changed considerably and the topic is now relevant beyond the narrow circle of survey statisticians. With large surveys becoming increasingly available for public use, researchers with little experience in survey methods are often faced with analyzing data from surveys to address scientific and programmatic issues. This practical book fills a niche by providing advanced statistical techniques for use in survey analysis, making complex surveys accessible to those working in statistics, business, economics, and the health and social sciences.
