The explanation and implementation of statistical methods for the medical researcher or statistician remains an integral part of modern medical research. This book explains the use of experimental and analytical biostatistics systems. Its accessible style allows it to be used by the non-mathematician as a fundamental component of successful research.
Since the third edition, there have been many developments in statistical techniques. The fourth edition provides the medical statistician with an accessible guide to these techniques and to reflect the extent of their usage in medical research.
The new edition takes a much more comprehensive approach to its subject. There has been a radical reorganization of the text to improve the continuity and cohesion of the presentation and to extend the scope by covering many new ideas now being introduced into the analysis of medical research data. The authors have tried to maintain the modest level of mathematical exposition that characterized the earlier editions, essentially confining the mathematics to the statement of algebraic formulae rather than pursuing mathematical proofs.
Received the Highly Commended Certificate in the Public Health Category of the 2002 BMA Books Competition.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Professor Armitage's book is a text on medical statistics, the first edition having been reprinted seven times. Written primarily for the non-mathematician, it describes the statistical techniques most frequently used in medical research. The main changes in the new edition consist of a rewriting of the chapters on survivorship tables, sequential and statistical methods in epidemiology, the expansion of several sections (eg on clinical trials), and a general adjustment of the approach to analysis of data in the light of modern computing methods. The volume will continue to be essential reading for the student of medical statistics and biostatistics, either in medicine or related life sciences (eg psychology), and the postgraduate in fields in which statistics are particularly important, such as epidemiology and community medicine. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR003040730
