Synopsis A study of applied nonparametric statistical methods. This edition reflects the changing attitudes towards applied statistics, new developments, and the impact of better, more widely-available statistical software released since the earlier editions. Rearranging the material in a more logical order, and introducing new topics, this edition emphasizes better use of significance tests and focuses greater attention on medical and dental applications.
