This book presents the concepts of statistical inference for students from non-mathematical backgrounds. Written at a level that appeals to those without a strong background in mathematics, and with its application and example-orientated approach, it is highly relevant to those in both academia and industry. The authors have included worked examples using S-Plus, with clear signposting to the use of other statistical software packages. "Statistical Inference with Medical Applications" has a dedicated website containing exercises, software code, solutions, overhead slides, and examples using Stata and SAS to reinforce learning.
