5.0 out of 5 stars Flawless! !!!!, Feb 16 2008

C. Hovington (Montreal, Qc Canada) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Foundations of Clinical Research: Applications to Practice (Hardcover)

As a graduate student, this book, unlike other statistics books I have read, is comprehensive, clear and to the point. The glossary contains many of the everyday terms used that we sometimes need to refresh ourselves on. It has helped me understand much more than I previously did, and struggled to understand. I recommend this book for any graduate student!
