Practical Statistics for the Physical Sciences
S
tatistical procedures can make an important contribution to evaluating scientific research. Now you can get a better understanding of how to use and apply these procedures to obtain the maximum amount of information from your data. With this dynamic new "how-to" book, you'll learn the concepts underlying the use of statistics through understandable, easy-to-follow steps. You'll cover the basic principles and assumptions required for using statistical analyses. Then you'll learn how to select and apply statistical techniques—and to properly interpret your results. A comprehensive reference, this book includes worked-out examples illustrating each procedure. Plus, commonly used formulas have been printed on the inside covers and a separate colored section of statistical tables has been included for easy reference.
