Matched sampling is often used to help assess the causal effect of
some exposure or intervention, typically when randomized
experiments are not available or cannot be conducted. This book
presents a selection of Donald B. Rubin's research articles on
matched sampling, from the early 1970s, when the author was one of
the major researchers involved in establishing the field, to recent
contributions to this now extremely active area. The articles
include fundamental theoretical studies that have become classics,
important extensions, and real applications that range from breast
cancer treatments to tobacco litigation to studies of criminal
tendencies. They are organized into seven parts, each with an
introduction by the author that provides historical and personal
context and discusses the relevance of the work today. A concluding
essay offers advice to investigators designing observational
studies. The book provides an accessible introduction to the study
of matched sampling and will be an indispensable reference for
students and researchers.
