[R] Off Topic: Good reference for sample size calculations

2003-09-10 Thread Warnes, Gregory R 

Hi All,

This is off topic, but we're drawing a blank here..

 In a presentation I'll be giving next week, I want to include a reference
 to a good general text on computing sample sizes for standard experiments.
 Can anyone recommend a good book to use for this purpose?
 
 Thanks,
 
 -Greg

Jacob Cohen's book Statistical Power Analysis for the Behavioral Sciences is one.
