This book has many unique features. A physical model to generation of ‘sampling distribution’ in the classroom which is useful in explaining some fundamental but difficult concepts to clinicians is suggested. There is enough discussion on “quality control” and “statistical fallacies”. The book highlights ‘clinical significance’, discusses their measures with confidence intervals, explains ‘tolerance limits’, compares & contrasts between ‘test of significance and confidence interval’ and gives ready tables of CI for extreme proportion/percentage. In this book ways of ascertainment correction in rates, potentials of PRE measures, appropriate alternative testing methods in specific situations (i.e. alternatives to Chi-square test), CI for median, procedure to estimate adjusted rates, logistic regression, tables to answer important question ‘Was the trial big enough to show risk reduction of <25 / 50% if it occurred?’, simplest test to quickly assess trial outcome, etc. are explained in simple terms.
