This book explains the use of experimental and analytical biostatistics systems. Its accessible style allows it to be used by the non-mathematician as a fundamental component of successful research. Since the third edition, there have been many developments in statistical techniques. The fourth edition provides the medical statistician with an accessible guide to these techniques and to reflect the extent of their usage in medical reseaMedicineResearchStatistical methodsMedicine, ExperimentalMedicineResearchStatistical methods.Medicine, Experimental.610/.72Armitage P980857Berry G(Geoffrey)980858Matthews J.
