About this title

Synopsis

Randomization, Bootstrap and Monte Carlo Methods in Biology, Second Edition features new material on on bootstrap confidence intervals and significance testing, and incorporates new developments on the treatments of randomization methods for regression and analysis variation, including descriptions of applications of these methods in spreadsheet programs such as Lotus and other commercial packages. This second edition illustrates the value of modern computer intensive methods in the solution of a wide range of problems, with particular emphasis on biological applications. Examples given in the text include the controversial topic of whether there is periodicity between co-occurrences of species on islands.
