Summary

This book focuses on the design and analysis of ecological experiments, concentrating on statistical approaches. Each chapter presents a particular statistical technique or set of techniques in the context of resolving an ecological issue. The first edition, published by Chapman and Hall in 1993, has sold about 4500 copies, and continues to sell. Chapters from the first edition have been substantially revised and new chapters have been added, including power analysis, logistic regression, randomization tests and empirical Bayesian analysis.
