Statistics in Medicine
Editorial Reviews
Review
"The concept of a two-part book (text and reference) is unique. The content is very good."
-David A. Lane, M.D., Bureau of Medicine and Surgery, Washington, DC
"An easy-to-use, germane, well-organized book. He has eliminated much of the material that might appear in a more standard textbook of statistics in favor of presenting specifically medical studies to his busy audience. It is organized in a manner that allows thumbing-through to obtain specific guidance for specific problems in medical statistics. The use of clinical data allows a deeper understanding (of the statistical implications.)"
-Brian Nyquist, M.D., Chief of Anesthesiology, Bremerton Naval Hospital, Washington
"One common annoyance in the lives of researchers is the attempt to ferret out details of a statistical test from a textbook. This book gives the details a busy researcher needs [in a single section], with assumptions, sufficient detail, and several worked examples. The text walks a
middle path between arcane mathematical rigor, and naive, slap-dash application. It achieves sophistication, without imposing mathematical demands on the reader."
-Bruce Boynton, M.D., Department of Pediatrics, University of California, San Diego
