Personal Review: Biostatistical Analysis (5th Edition) by Jerrold H. Zar As a working biologist with little formal mathematical training (and NO statistics training) I was looking for a text that had everything I needed to know about a statistical test--when to use it, when not to use it and how to use it. Zar fits the bill perfectly. I particularly appreciate that for each test he provides real world examples and then works the test out completely. Even when I've had difficulty understanding a test at first (with the ANOVA, for example), I was able to follow the example and convince myself that I had really grasped it. Another reviewer mentioned the "pencil and paper" aspect of Zar as a negative, but I disagree. I love SPSS as much as the next person and I use it all the time, but my understanding of what test to use when and what that test is really doing come from Zar.
