Essentials of Biostatistics in Public Health, Second Edition provides a fundamental and engaging background for students learning to apply and appropriately interpret biostatistics applications in the field of public health.

The examples are real, relevant, and manageable in size so that students can easily focus on applications rather than become overwhelmed by computations.
