| Abstract
|
:
|
During the last years the number of applications of cluster analysis in the social sciences has increased very rapidly. Dr. Bijnen has done an extremely useful job by putting together and evaluating attempts to arrive at better and more elegant techniques of cluster analysis from such diverse fields as the social sciences, biology and medicine.
