Statistical methods are becoming more important in all biological
fields of study. Biometry deals with the application of
mathematical techniques to the quantitative study of varying
characteristics of organisms, populations, species, etc. This book
uses examples based on genuine data carefully chosen by the author
for their special biological significance. The chapters cover a
broad spectrum of topics and bridge the gap between introductory
biological statistics and advanced approaches such as multivariate
techniques and nonlinear models. A set of statistical tables most
frequently used in biometry completes the book.
