Book Reviews of Biomedical Bestiary: An Epidemiologic Guide to Flaws and Fallacies in the Medical Literature
Book Review: A Classic, Witty, Statistical Reference
Summary: 5 Stars
It's hard to find a syllabus for an epidemiology class that doesn't reference the Biomedical Bestiary. Long out of print, it is still the best survey of the statistical errors that mark the biomedical field. Wittily and breezily written, it still manages to get it's point across, even if your last statistics class was a very long time ago. If you design, participate in, interpret the results of, or are otherwise impacted by biomedical studies, you should have a copy of this book.
