“References are listed after each chapter … reflecting the wealth of his contribution to the subject of causal inference over the last four decades… The book is a comprehensive account of methods for comparing treatments in an observational study, rich with detailed illustrations using data for inferences of substance in education, epidemiology, economics and clinical medicine. … this is an absolute `must' for reading and reference for every statistician who works with observational studies … .” (Nicholas T. Longford, Mathematical Reviews, April, 2022)

“This book is readily usable for self-study, a graduate seminar, or use by a practitioner getting their bearings in the field. The book is filled with references to both foundational work and cutting-edge approaches. … the book was an easy read. Rosenbaum provides practical advice, delivered in a conversational tone, and steers clear of theweeds that might bog a reader down in the main text. steers clear of the weeds that might bog a reader down in the main text.” (Sara Stoudt, MAA Reviews, July 24, 2021)
