Summary:

The book provides complete coverage of the classical methods of statistical analysis. It is designed to give students an understanding of the purpose of statistical analyses, to allow the student to determine, at least to some degree, the correct type of statistical analyses to be performed in a given situation, and have some appreciation of what constitutes good experimental design.* Examples and exercises contain real data and graphical illustration for ease of interpretation* Outputs from SAS 7, SPSS 7, Excel, and Minitab are used for illustration, but any major
