Biostatistics Manual for Health Research: A Practical Guide to Data Analysis is a guide for researchers on how to apply biostatistics on different types of data. The book approaches biostatistics and its application from medical and health researcher’s point-of-view and has real and mostly published data for practice and understanding. The interpretation and meaning of the statistical results, reporting guidelines and mistakes are taught with real world examples. This is a valuable resource for biostaticians, students and researchers from medical and biomedical fields who need to learn how to apply statistical approaches to improve their research.
