By Gail F. Dawson MD MS FAAEP
- The work constitutes an intuitive but very rigorous introduction to statistics that avoids formalities and includes very useful analogies and graphic resources. This is a very practical book that provides the key concepts necessary to understand biostatistics and, more importantly, its application in the clinical context.
- Thus, and to highlight its clinical approach, the explanations focus more on concepts than on formulas. It provides the necessary tools so that the clinician can apply them in their real context. Each of the chapters is focused on a single concept, moving from the simplest to the most complex knowledge. The objective of the book is not to convert the reader into a biostatistics professional, but to provide the necessary tools to correctly interpret the scientific literature with which evidence-based medicine can be carried out.
- The work facilitates the knowledge of the logic behind any inference process and provides a vocabulary that will allow the professional to hold conversations and discussions based on different scientific articles.
- As didactic elements, the work presents text boxes and questions with self-evaluation at the end of each chapter.
