  This book introduces the basic concepts underlying the use of statistics in medical research, and is a practical guide to the initiation and analysis of a research project. It covers the majority of statistical methods commonly encountered in the medical literature and, in line with current thinking, particular emphasis is placed on the confidence interval approach. This edition expands on the material in the last edition, but the broad structure of the book remains the same. However, the chapters on computers and vital statistics have been totally reworked. Major changes have been made to the sections on confidence intervals.
