This book is a practical introduction to statistical techniques
called nonpara metric methods. Using examples, we explain
assumptions and demonstrate procedures; theory is kept to a
minimum. We show how basic problems are tackled and try to clear up
common misapprehensions so as to help both students of statistics
meeting the methods for the first time and workers in other fields
faced with data needing simple but informative analysis. An analogy
between experimenters and car drivers describes our aim.
Statistical analyses may be done by following a set of rules
without understanding their logical basis, but this has dangers. It
is like driving a car with no inkling ofhow the internal combustion
engine, the gears, the ignition system, the brakes actually work.
Understanding the rudiments helps one get better performance and
makesdrivingsafer;appropriate gearchanges become a way to reduce
engine stress, prolong engine life, improve fuel economy, minimize
wear on brake linings. Knowing how to change the engine oil or
replace worn sparking plugs is notessential for adriver, but it
will reduce costs. Learning such basics will not make one a fully
fledged mechanic, even less an automotive engineer; but it all
contributes to more economical and safer driving, alertingone to
the dangers ofbald tyres, aleakingexhaust, worn brake linings."
