Description
Principles of Medical Statistics is designed to help you think critically about data and statistical procedures. This comprehensive guide covers new methods and approaches, including box plots, stem and leaf plots, and resampling techniques like the bootstrap and jackknife methods.
The book takes a logical sequence approach, advancing from simple to more complex results, while providing rigorous mathematical justifications for conventional statistical procedures. With a clinical orientation, it uses real-world medical phenomena and teaching exercises to illustrate key concepts.
Statistical procedures are a fundamental component of biomedical research, and this book fills the gap often found in current curriculums. It offers more than most elementary texts, providing a balanced approach that covers both conventional mathematical principles and clinical applications.
