2 Practicalstatistics Introductory Biostatistics

Maths from Scratch for Biologists

CHAP T. LE, Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of Minnesota, USA

Taking a problems-based approach full of real-world examples, the text slowly and methodically builds understanding and mastery of the fundamentals of biostatistics. It briefly covers data collection and then expands on the subjects of descriptive statistics, statistical inference, probability, and probability models. Such features as “Brief Notes on the Fundamentals,” end-ofchapter notes on computations using Excel, and samples of SAS computer programs strengthen the reader’s grasp of the background and the concepts of biostatistical procedures. 0471 41816 1
