Essentials of Statistics for Research offers a working introduction to essential statistical methods through an accessible conceptual approach without excessive mathematical details. The book emphasizes the importance of good judgment when choosing analysis approaches and illustrates the statistical analysis process through numerous examples. At its core, this text demonstrates how analysis should serve science and illuminate the stories contained within data.
Key Features
This book is designed for researchers across a broad range of disciplines, from graduate students beginning their research journey to experienced professionals seeking a refresher on statistical methods. The accessible approach makes it particularly valuable for those who need to understand and apply statistical concepts without getting lost in mathematical complexity. Readers will gain practical knowledge they can immediately apply to their own research questions and data analysis challenges.
Ken Gerow, PhD, recently retired from the University of Wyoming, where, as a professor of statistics for over thirty years, he taught statistics to quantitative scientists from many disciplines. Dr. Gerow earned his PhD degree in Statistics at Cornell University. He is the author or a coauthor of over ninety research articles, books, and book chapters, in topics ranging from the molecular and cellular world to the visible world around us (plant, animal, and human systems). Ken considers himself to be a parasitic biologist because he only publishes with other people's data.
