The well written text is in an easy-to-understand tutorial style. Numerous applied examples complement the text for first-time macro programmers. -- Jimmy Thomas Efird Stanford School of Medicine, and Roche Global Development
This book is appropriate for intermediate SAS® users who recently began using macro language, and advanced users as a review. -- Jim Young MSUG, Ann Arbor, MI
