Tóm tắt

Science often deals with hard-to-see phenomena, and they only stand out and become real when viewed through the lens of complex statistical tools. This book is not a textbook about statistics applied to science--there are already many excellent books to choose from--rather, it gives an overview of the basic principles that physical scientists use to analyze their data and bring out the order of Nature from the fog of background noise.
