Statistics Explained is a reader-friendly introduction to experimental design 

and statistics for undergraduate students in the life sciences, particularly 

those who do not have a strong mathematical background. Hypothesis testing and 

experimental design are discussed first. Statistical tests are then explained 

using pictorial examples and a minimum of formulae. This class-tested approach, 

along with a well-structured set of diagnostic tables will give students the 

confidence to choose an appropriate test with which to analyse their own data 

sets. Presented in a lively and straight-forward manner, Statistics Explained 

will give readers the depth and background necessary to proceed to more advanced 

texts and applications. It will therefore be essential reading for all 

bioscience undergraduates, and will serve as a useful refresher course for more 

advanced students.
