Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

Hirsch and Riegelman have recognized the need for a text to explain, to a wide audience, statistical concepts rather than mathematics or terminology. They therefore expand on traditional mathematical methods by using graohics illustrating mathematical ideas, working through scores of examples from medical cases and literature, and employing non-technical terminology. Thus, they aim to provide the reader with an understanding of the terminology and mathematics without the rote learning that traditional methods require. The book presents the basic principles of statistics common to all methods of analysis and covers the logical processes used by statisticians to select statistical procedures for a particular set of data. Included is free software (STAT-PLUS) from the authors, and a free teacher's guide contains problems and answers, worked examples, flow charts and statistical tables.
