This is the second edition of a popular reference on cluster randomized trials. There have been many developments in methodology and applications since the first edition published in 2007. The second edition has been updated with these new developments, including more material on sample size determination, constraining randomization, and pair-matched designs. The applications have been updated with new studies that have taken place recently. The computing has been enhanced with STATA routines for all the methods and examples.
