5 posts | 1 read
For over a decade, Glover and Mitchell have provided life-sciences students with an accessible, complete introduction to the use of statistics in their disciplines. The authors emphasize the relationships between probability, probability distributions, and hypothesis testing using both parametric and nonparametric analyses. Copious examples throughout the text apply concepts and theories to real questions faced by researchers in biology, environmental science, biochemistry, and health sciences. Dozens of examples and problems are new to the Third Edition, as are Concept Checksshort questions that allow readers to immediately gauge their mastery of the topics presented. Regardless of mathematical background, all readers will appreciate the value of statistics as a fundamental quantitative skill for the life sciences.

'Twas an excellent textbook. Only a few chapters were less than ideally thorough.

One of my favorite things about work is that they let me work on my homework and make use of my giant workspace. ✌️P.S. the bookstand came from Staples for $4

A different kind of productivity today. This textbook is really well written. That's soooooo refreshing.

My vacation is over and I'm back at school and work...except school...I slept right through my 8AM class this morning. I'm so disappointed in myself! At least it was only the syllabus overview and the first half of champter one... I can manage that part myself. Thankfully, I work on campus in my department and have a lot of downtime to study! 📚👩‍🔬

mkritchey @EricQiao you can always go back! That's one of awesome things about it, there's always more to learn if you can handle the crippling debt! ☠️☠️☠️ 7y

mkritchey @EricQiao I don't think timeline matters much as long as you do what makes you happy. 😋 unless you opt for 8AM classes! That's a very different discussion! 7y
EricQiao @mkritchey Ah yes, the road to ultimate happiness is paved with 8AM classes... 7y
mkritchey @EricQiao disagree! 🙅 7y
