Medical Statistics from Scratch

Medical Statistics from Scratch

by David Bowers (Author)

Synopsis

This second edition combines information from the original two books, Statistics from Scratch and Statistics Further from Scratch, to make one, comprehensive, user friendly, down-to-earth guide to elementary statistics. The book presents a detailed account of the most important procedures for the analysis of data, from the calculation of simple proportions, to a variety of statistical tests, and the use of regression models for modeling of clinical outcomes. The level of mathematics is kept to a minimum to make the material easily accessible to the novice, and a multitude of illustrative cases are included in every chapter, drown from the current research literature.
