Statistics and Experimental Design for Toxicologists and Pharmacologists

By Shayne C. Gad

Book Overview

This fourth edition provides tools for the rigorous and critical analysis of experimental data. Assuming only basic mathematical skills, the book provides a complete and exhaustive introduction to the statistical methods available and updates all material to cover current practices. The author also provides three entirely new and up-to-the-minute chapters: one provides the first practical guide to performing meta analysis that allows for the power inherent in multiple similar studies; two others cover Bayesian analysis and data analysis in pharmacology, discussing analysis of receptor binding assays, safety pharmacology assays, and other standard study types conducted in pharmacology.
