The book is valuable as it shares thought-provoking issues and considerations beyond a standard clinical trial. These extensions beyond standard methods would also be useful for qualified practising statisticians with reasonable technical expertise. The practical examples from various trials are also useful because these provide concrete examples and dilemmas which may also happen in real life. The book is a good starting point to assist practising statisticians in finding a solution, and as an information-sharing medium with examples from a number of case studies.
