Synopsis

Hampton and Havel's clear, approachable text has guided a generation of biology students through their first foray into statistics. The third edition continues to provide a thorough grounding in all essential methods of descriptive and inferential statistics, ideal for any student seeking a career in experimental sciences. Each chapter has been carefully updated and restructured to enhance understanding, better bridge the gaps between topics, and create a pragmatic approach to learning the many uses of statistics in biology.

The authors complement their descriptions with an abundance of examples and exercises that illustrate how to choose and apply statistical procedures and interpret their results in real-world scenarios, allowing students to develop and test their understanding while building their confidence with the material. The third edition explores changing standards of technology and includes new boxed examples written by experts on computer-intensive resampling methods, multivariate analysis, and meta-analysis.
