Applying statistical methods to paleontological data requires a discipline-specific understanding of which methods and parameters are the most appropriate ones, and how to account for statistical bias inherent in the fossil record. By guiding the reader to these and other fundamental questions in the statistical analysis of fossilized specimens, \u003ci\u003ePaleontological Data Analysis \u003c\/i\u003ehas become the standard text for anyone with an interest in quantitative analysis of the fossil record.
