This conceptually-based introduction to statistical procedures prepares public health and life sciences students to conduct and evaluate research in the biological and public health sciences. The authors illustrate that statistics is more than just "maths".
Marcello Pagano and Kimberlee Gauvreau’s PRINCIPLES OF BIOSTATISTICS, Second Edition is a concepts-based introduction to statistical procedures that prepares public health, medical, and life sciences students to conduct and evaluate research. With an engaging writing style and helpful graphics, the emphasis is on concepts over formulas or rote memorization. Throughout the book, the authors use practical, interesting examples with real data to bring the material to life.
