This book acquaints students and practitioners in the related
fields of pharmaceutical sciences, clinical trials, and
evidence-based medicine with the necessary study design concepts
and statistical practices to allow them to understand how drug
developers plan and evaluate their drug development. Two goals of
the book are to make the material accessible to readers with
minimal background in research and to be straightforward enough for
self-taught purposes. By bringing the topic from the early
discovery phase to clinical trials and medical practice, the book
provides an indispensable overview of an otherwise confusing and
fragmented set of topics. The author’s experience as a respected
scientist, teacher of statistics, and one who has worked in the
clinical trials arena makes him well suited to write such a
treatise.
