ANNOUNCEMENT
Second Edition of my book Medical Biostatistics, published by Chapman &
Hall/CRC Press, appeared some time ago. In keeping with its promise of
(medical+bio)>statistics, the book is heavily biased toward medical
issues.The book tries to provide a new perspective to the subject by
focusing on medical uncertainties and emphasizing how some of these can be
managed by biostatistics methods.
The book discusses almost all routinely used statistical methods in medicine
and health, such as CIs, tests, regression, multivariate methods and
survival analysis but also contains discussion on normal ranges in medical
practice, evidence-based medicine, clinimetrics, epidemiological measurement
of health and disease, sensitivity-specificity/predictivities, ROC curve,
statistical CIs vs. tests of significance, quality control in health care,
and statistical fallacies. One review called it "probably the most complete
book on biostatistics".
