David J. Livingstone is the author of A Practical Guide to Scientific Data Analysis, published by Wiley.

A practical handbook aimed at the working scientist, it covers the application of statistical and mathematical methods to the design of "performance" chemicals, such as pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, fragrances, flavours and paints. This volume will have wide appeal, not only to chemists, but biochemists, pharmacists and other researchers within the field of statistical analysis of experimental results.
* The first book in this field to address this topic
* The statistics book for the non-statistician
* Highly qualified and internationally respected author
