In doing so, the reader will be able to distinguish patient-important and methodologically sound studies from those having limitations in design, conduct and interpretation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are no prerequisites for reading this book. The text is basic and has no statistical formulas. Key take-home messages are listed at the end of each chapter. The large number of cartoons has two purposes: First, to make the text easier to read and generate a few laughs and, second, to underscore specific points, sometimes in a provocative way.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2007-08-02\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780387728988\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-0-387-72899-5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 165\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46544940269708,"sku":"9780387728988","price":76.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780387728988.jpg?v=1779046007","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780387728988","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
