A unified treatment of the most useful models for categorical and limited dependent variables (CLDVs) is provided in this book. Throughout, the links among the models are made explicit, and common methods of derivation, interpretation and testing are applied. In addition, the author explains how models relate to linear regression models whenever possible.
