A multidimensional framework is offered that makes possible the joint modeling of several risks patterns corresponding to combinations of several factors, including age group, time period, disease, etc. Although theory will be covered, the applied component will be equally as important with lots of practical examples offered. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscusses the very latest developments on multivariate and multidimensional mapping.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGives a single state-of-the-art framework that unifies most of the previously proposed disease mapping approaches.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBalances epidemiological and statistical points-of-view. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRequires no previous knowledge of disease mapping.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes practical sessions at the end of each chapter with WinBUGs\/INLA and real world datasets.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplies R code for the examples in the book so that they can be reproduced by the reader.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbout the Authors:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMiguel A.
