Summary note
"Like its two previous editions, this classic text is the only fully problems-based introduction to biostatistics written specifically for students and professionals in medicine and health-related fields. It offers a concise introduction to basic statistical concepts and reasoning without assuming any prior background in statistics and without the use of complex formulas or jargon." "This user-friendly book includes 200 real-life examples and real data for discussing and teaching fundamental statistical methods. The new edition offers even more exercises than the previous edition and features enhanced Microsoft Excel and SAS examples."--BOOK JACKET.
