Statistical analysis allows us to attach meaning to data that we
have collected; it helps us to understand what experimental results
really mean, and to assess whether we can trust what experiments
seem to be telling us. Yet, despite being a collection of the most
valuable and important tools available to bioscientists, statistics
is often the aspect of study most feared by students.
Biomeasurement offers a refreshing, student-focused introduction to
the use of statistics in the study of the biosciences. With an
emphasis on why statistical techniques are essential tools for
bioscientists, the book develops students' confidence to use and
further explore the key techniques for themselves. Beginning by
placing the role of data analysis in the context of the wider
scientific method and introducing the student to the key terms and
concepts common to all statistical tools, the book then guides the
student through descriptive statistics, and on to inferential
statistics, explaining how and why each type of technique is used,
and what each can tell us in order to better understand our data.
It goes on to present the key statistical tests, walking the
student step-wise through the use of each, with
carefully-integrated examples and plentiful opportunities for
hands-on practice. The book closes with an overview of choosing the
right test to suit your data, and tools for presenting data and
their statistical analyses. Written by a talented educator, whose
teaching has won praise from the UK's Quality Assurance Agency for
Higher Education, Biomeasurement is sure to engage even the most
wary of students, demonstrating the power and importance of
statistics throughout the study of bioscience. Online resources:
