Description
This extremely pragmatic and accessible reference provides scientists with a basic knowledge of statistics-focusing on the practical applications of statistical methods to research, quality control, and data analysis. Basic Statistics and Pharmaceutical Statistical Applications explores types of variables, random sampling, probability, measures of central tendency, and hypothesis (or significance) testing, discusses regression analysis, nonparametric tests, and power determination, and examines study designs, confidence intervals, dissolution testing, and bioequivalence. The author also describes the interrelation of hypotheses, test statistics, decision rules, computations, and statistical decisions and addresses testing factors such as precision, accuracy, bias, sensitivity, and selectivity
Featuring almost 500 equations, tables, drawings, and references, Basic Statistics and Pharmaceutical Statistical Applications is required reading for pharmacists, analytical chemists, clinical trial monitors, medical writers, and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
