5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Desk Reference for Biologists, Feb 10 2004

By	Robert B. Page (Rockbridge Baths, VA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have found this book more approachable and user friendly than Sokal and Rohlf. Zar is an excellent desk reference, and has solved a number of statistical problems for me. I reccomend it to anybody who regularly uses statistics in a biological context.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ultimate Biostat Book, Dec 19 2003

By	Daryl Paulson (Bozeman, Montana) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

You will not go wrong with this book. It is the best general
biostatistical book in print. You will need to study it for it is not a cook book, but it is well written. An absolute must book.

2.0 out of 5 stars Concise but not beginner friendly, Jun 12 2001

By A Customer

This book is very concise and very mathemically based. It does a good job at presenting the mathematical models of statistics but it does a lousy job at explaining biostatistics in a conceptual manner. Maybe a great book for those who love mathemical models and notations but definitely not recommended for someone who is trying to understand biostatistics conceptually. If you are a scientist with a weak bacdground in statistics, you may find it a waste of time to try to understand this book.
