Recenzje

"...This book deals with statistical data simulations in biology...It should be noted that the presentation of the book contains a lot of explanations and justifications that are not limited by mathematical formula. Thus, a biologist can easily understand the basic idea and approach of any statistical method discussed in the book...The book...is very well structured; the presentation of the material is clear and consistent. There are many illustrative examples and exercises. I enjoyed reading this book, and it is clearly included in the list of books that I highly recommend for study in the training of specialists in the field of biostatistics."
