Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
This separate compendium of statistical tables aims to eliminate the inconvenience of having to turn back and forth within one biostatistics book in order to refer to the data. The separate volume format also allows for the inclusion of more complete and diverse information. The third edition features: two tables for critical values of the delta-corrected one-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test; shortest unbiased confidence limits for the Poisson and bionomial distribution; critical values for several selected proportions (including 0.5); nomographs for power and sample size in analysis of variance; and a table for a test of serial independence of observations. Tables of mathematical functions now readily available on pocket calculators or computers have been removed. This book is designed to be used in conjunction with Sokal and Rohlf's "Biometry", Third Edition, but also works well with other texts, or independently as a research resource.

great collection of statistical tables January 24, 2008

If you have Sokal and Rohlf's Biometry book it pays to get these tables. They are referenced throughout the book and it is convenient to have them to do most of the problems.br /One thing to watch out for is to make sure that the edition of the tables matches the edition of the text. I have the second edition of the book and the third edition of the tables. The authors removed eight tables in the third edition and instead of using the numbering system of the second edition, they switched to letters floowed by double letters after they ran through the alphabet.br /br /There are many useful tables and explanations are given, so they can be used independently of the text. However, if you get the text you will want the tables. The tables are referenced in numerous interesting and instructive examples in the text.br /br /In the Preface to the Second Edition the authors say that the tables are there for pedigogical reasons only and they chose not to include them in the text because in these days pocket calculators can often be used as replacements for tables. Nevertheless without realizing it the reader does become dependent on these tables to get a full understanding of the examples.br /br /If you get the book get the tables also. If you just want to have a reference set of statistical tables they are useful but I much prefer the "Pocket Book of Statistical Tables" by Odeh and Owens. br /br /
