Medical statistics made easy

Harris, Michael

Medical statistics made easy - 4th ed. - Banbury : Scion Publishing, 2020 - x, 129p.

Medical Statistics Made Easy has been a perennial bestseller since the first edition was published.
It is widely recommend on a variety of courses and programmes, from undergraduate medicine, through to professional medical qualifications.


It is a book of key statistics principles for anyone studying or working in medicine and healthcare who needs a basic overview of the subject. It is ideal for non-statisticians who need to understand how statistics are used and applied in medicine and medical research.
Using a consistent format, the authors describe the most common statistical methods in turn and then rate them on how difficult they are to understand and how common they are. The worked examples that demonstrate the statistical method in action have been updated to include current articles from the medical literature and now feature a wider range of medical journals.
This fourth edition continues with the same structure as the previous editions, with new sections on cut-off points and ROC curves, as well as a new chapter on choosing the right statistical test. It also features a completely revised and updated "Statistics at work" section.
