The second edition of this very successful & authoritative set of tables still benefits from clear typesetting which makes the figures easy to read & use It has however been enhanced by the addition of new tables that provide Bayesian confidence limits for the binomial & Poisson distributions & for the square of the multiple correlation coefficient which have not been previously available The intervals are the shortest possible consistent with the requirement on probability Great care has been taken to ensure that it is clear just what is being tabulated & how the values may be used; the tables are generally capable of easy interpolation The book contains all the tables likely to be required for elementary statistical methods in the social business & natural sciences It will be an essential aid for teachers researchers & students in those subjects where statistical analysis is not wholly carried out by computers
