This book aims to dispel the fear that frequently surrounds the use of statistics, and is written in a non-mathematical style with an emphasis on assimilating underlying concepts and correctly interpreting computer output. Statistical methods are introduced using real, high-quality data sets and typical veterinary research questions, which are placed at the heart of the statistical science.
