Review
-- Frank J. Ascione, Dean and Professor, University of Michigan College of Pharmacy
De Muth has written a book that is both elegant and simple...enables the reader to clearly understand how to appropriately use statistics in designing studies and just as importantly determine when statistics should not be used...an excellent reference book that will enable the non-statistician to appropriately use statistical approaches...A unique attribute of this statistical textbook is the acknowledgement of how statistical tests can be misused...contains useful information that helps the non-statistician avoid some of the common errors that are made when using statistical approaches in the analysis of data.
--Mark N. Milton, Millennium Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
