Review
"These two books are quite amazing. The depth and detail contained in these two tiny volumes is quite stunning.
The way the two books have been written is succinct, and yet, does allow the student to understand the way the material is presented."

excellent guide for health researchers,
By Diana (Argentina) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Statistics at Square One (Paperback)
The book summarizes in a friendly manner basic statistical concepts and points out many frequently made statistical errors.
It would be helpful if the data came in an electronic manner, via a CD or web address in order to help for doing the described calculations.
