Summary: Excellent Over view
Comment: Prof Scott Menard must be commended for writing an excellent book on Logistic Regression. Explaining it in the context of commercially available software packages is a very good idea. I was able replicate some his analysis using SAS on the data set used in this book (available on line from ICPSR, Univ of Michigan).
I eagerly await the next edition of this monograph. Thank you!

Summary: A Nice Overview
Comment: A good, cheap overview of logistic regression analysis.
I bought and I'm glad I did, but I don't refer to it like I do Hosmer and Lemeshow's text.

Summary: Excellent Guide to Logistic Regression
Comment: As its title suggests, this book is an excellent guide to using logistic regression in data analysis. I purchased this book because I needed to do several logistic regression runs for my dissertation. It turned out to be an extremely useful book for two reasons. First, it presents logistic regression alongside more traditional ordinary least squares (OLS) models. Therefore, if you already have a good understanding of OLS models, this book is very easy to follow. Second, its discussion of logistic regression issues in the context of SPSS or SAS makes it very easy to follow along with your own data analysis as you move through the book. Since statistical packages are always improving, this does date the book a little. However, this is a very minor concern. I believe Dr. Menard is to be commended for including issues regarding popular software packages in this work.
When compared to SAS's documentation, this book's greatest advantage is explaining in english (rather than mathematical notation) the assumptions and limitations of SAS's (and SPSS'S) algorithms. Its chapter on logistic regression diagnostics is alone worth the price of the book. In short, if you need to use logistic regression analysis and you already understand OLS, you cannot go wrong with this book.
