Introduction to design and analysis of experiments

More about the book

An applied introduction to statistics for students with no background in the subject. The author places a strong emphasis on choosing sound design structures prior to a formal discussion of ANOVA, and then goes on to explore real data sets using a variety of graphs and numerical methods, before testing the assumptions behind standard ANOVA texts. Throughout the book, the author emphasises the contextual understanding and interpretation of data analysis rather than stressing formal deductive, mathematical reasoning, while the more difficult algebraic discussions are contained in optional sections.
