编辑推荐 Review
"...the author presents statistical concepts in fairly simple language and in a format that will make it especially appealing to a clinician...All clinicians will find this book useful, whether they are students, residents, or practitioners...particularly helpful to clinicians who do not have the time or interest in getting comprehensive training in biostatistics, yet need to understand and use these concepts in their professional careers...particularly useful are the illustrations and examples, exercises along with their answers, appendixes, and use of real data. Formulas are explained clearly, in a step-by-step fashion...This is one of the few books that presents hard to understand statistical concepts applied to real-world medical data in a relatively simple manner. The second edition expands on the first and includes more advanced topics as well as current concepts." - DOODY Enterprises, Inc. "This book is excellent value for the clinician who wants to evaluate the research (s)he reads and for those who carry out research." - Margaret Moss, UK, for JOURNAL OF NUTRITIONAL & ENVIRONMENTAL MEDICINE From the Foreword: "I congratulate Dr. Riffenburgh on his career as a medical statistician and for this useful text/reference book, which I commend to all who teach statistics to students in the health-related fields and to all who are engaged in or are consumers of health-related research." - W. M. (Mike) O'Fallon, Professor Emeritus and former Head of Biostatistics and Chair of the Dept. of Health Science Research, Mayo Clinic Praise for the First Edition: "This user-friendly text is laid out in a practical fashion that includes numerous examples for applying complex tests. This book is complete enough for even the hard core bioresearcher." - Richard A. Hill, University of California-Irvine "Statistics can be overwhelming for the health professional and Dr. Riffenburgh gives them the tools to make preparing proposals using statistical applications easy. I wholeheartedly recommend this book to any professional, novice or seasoned, involved in the research process." - Capt. Peggy McNulty, U.S. Naval Health Clinic, Hawaii

"One common annoyance in the lives of researchers is the attempt to ferret out details of a statistical test from a textbook. This book gives the details a busy researcher needs [in a single section], with assumptions, sufficient detail, and several worked examples. The text walks a middle path between arcane mathematical rigor, and naive, slap-dash application. It achieves sophistication, without imposing mathematical demands on the reader." --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

"The concept of a two-part book (text and reference) is unique. The content is very good." -David A. Lane, M.D., Bureau of Medicine and Surgery, Washington, DC "An easy-to-use, germane, well-organized book. He has eliminated much of the material that might appear in a more standard textbook of statistics in favor of presenting specifically medical studies to his busy audience. It is organized in a manner that allows thumbing-through to obtain specific guidance for specific problems in medical statistics. The use of clinical data allows a deeper understanding (of the statistical implications.)" -Brian Nyquist, M.D., Chief of Anesthesiology, Bremerton Naval Hospital, Washington "One common annoyance in the lives of researchers is the attempt to ferret out details of a statistical test from a textbook.
