+     "This package provides a comprehensive collection of functions for
+conducting meta-analyses in R.  The package includes functions to calculate
+various effect sizes or outcome measures, fit fixed-, random-, and
+mixed-effects models to such data, carry out moderator and meta-regression
+analyses, and create various types of meta-analytical plots (e.g., forest,
+funnel, radial, L'Abbe, Baujat, GOSH plots).  For meta-analyses of binomial
+and person-time data, the package also provides functions that implement
+specialized methods, including the Mantel-Haenszel method, Peto's method, and
+a variety of suitable generalized linear (mixed-effects) models (i.e.
+mixed-effects logistic and Poisson regression models).  Finally, the package
+provides functionality for fitting meta-analytic multivariate/multilevel
+models that account for non-independent sampling errors and/or true
+effects (e.g. due to the inclusion of multiple treatment studies, multiple
+endpoints, or other forms of clustering).  Network meta-analyses and
+meta-analyses accounting for known correlation structures (e.g. due to
+phylogenetic relatedness) can also be conducted.")
