Biostatistics - An Introduction and Conceptual Critique (Paperback)

- The only textbook that combines an introduction to both the technical operations and conceptual premises of biostatistics - Details the conceptual consequences of the mathematical premises of biostatistics that distort our understanding of holistic and contextual nature of health and medicine - Emphasizes the qualitative and subjective decisions that precede any quantitative analysis - The conceptual implications of biostatistical tools and techniques-such as contriving to fit objects to tools rather than fitting tools to objects-apply equally to statistics in general - Presents univariate, bivariate, and regression analysis through a single common scenario to facilitate student comprehension - Organizes biostatistical tools and techniques into nine configurations that help frame use and rationale of statistical tests and measures - Walks the reader through the technical steps for the examples associated with the nine configurations
