Keywords

These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.

The paperback and online versions of the book contain some errors, and the corrections to these versions are given below:

Repeatedly throughout the text: “an RR-VGLM” should be “a RR-VGLM”.

Chapter 1

Page 27, Section 1.5.2.5: “… because males just born …” should be “… because females just born …”.

Page 30, Package “zelig” should be “Zelig”

Chapter 5

Page 177, Section 5.5.2.2: first paragraph: “… or COZIGAMs, and there was an R package by the same name”. Evidently COZIGAM was removed from CRAN in mid-2012.

Chapter 10

Page 315, Exercise 10.10: binom2.or(exchangeable = TRUE, zero = NULL) is correct, rather than binom2.or(exchangeable = TRUE, ZERO = NULL).

Chapter 11

Page 327, Package “COUNTS” should be “COUNT”

Chapter 14

Section 14.4.2 page 401 bottom: the code chunk should end with

That is, arguments “ylab” and “pch” have been changed.

Appendix A

Page 555, Eqn. (A.50): the sign before the summation is “−” rather than “+”, i.e.,

$$\displaystyle\begin{array}{rcl} \psi (x)& \ =\ & \log x - \frac{1} {2\,x} -\sum\limits_{ k=1}^{\infty } \frac{B_{2k}} {2\,k\,x^{2k}}\ =\ \log x - \frac{1} {2\,x} - \frac{1} {12\,x^{2}} + \cdots \,,\ \ \ \ \ \ \ {}\end{array}$$
