Part I makes key concepts in statistics readily clear. Parts I and II give an overview of the most common tests (t-test, ANOVA, correlations) and work out their statistical principles. Part III provides insight into meta-statistics (statistics of statistics) and demonstrates why experiments often do not replicate. Finally, the textbook shows how complex statistics can be avoided by using clever experimental design. Both non-scientists and students in Biology, Biomedicine and Engineering will benefit from the book by learning the statistical basis of scientific claims and by discovering ways to evaluate the quality of scientific reports in academic journals and news outlets. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed September 10, 2019). 590 SpringerLink|bSpringer Nature Open Access eBooks 650 0 Mathematical statistics. 650 7 Mathematical statistics.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01012127 700 1 Francis, Gregory|q(Gregory S.),|eauthor. 700 1 Clarke, Aaron,|eauthor. 830 0 Learning materials in biosciences.|x2509-6125 914 on1117773317 994 92|bSTJ
