"Statistics in Medicine makes medical statistics easy to understand and applicable. The book begins with databases from clinical medicine and uses such data throughout to give multiple worked-out illustrations of every method.

In contrast to a traditional text, it is organized into two parts: (I) an introductory, basic-concepts text for students in medicine, dentistry, nursing, pharmacy, and other health care fields; and (II) a reference manual to support practicing clinicians in reading medical literature or conducting a research study."--BOOK JACKET.
