Inhaltsangabe

This popular textbook provides a non-mathematical account of all those statistical methods used commonly in the biological sciences. The methods are described first, then how to use them and understand the results, and finally how to use modern computing methods to both facilitate the experiment and illustrate reports with appropriate pictures and diagrams.
There are many worked examples and exercises making the text as useful for personal study as for the classroom.

Über diesen Titel

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Many gross errors in applying statistical methods arise through not knowing when they work, or when the results are a nonsense, and through using methods that are not entirely appropriate to the problems being analysed. The most effective way of learning to use and appreciate statistical methods is through an applied approach. Clarke's popular textbook provides a non-mathematical account of all the statistical methods commonly used by students and researchers in the biological sciences. It describes the methods, their uses and the interpretation of results and in addition, presents the ideas behind, and the limitations of, standard statistical procedure. The text acknowledges the importance of computers in the analysis of data and gives students advice on the use of MINITAB in statistical work and the use of computer graphics to illustrate reports.
