The text requires no previous mathematical competence beyond elementary algebra.
The data in the examples are intended to demonstrate the biochemical and
statistical procedures that will make the students understand and appreciate the
subject.
Reflecting the magnificent diversity of scientific endeavours that can be found
in biological sciences, this book presents a short collection a biochemical
calculations and a broad collection of statistical techniques. It is written
with two purposes: to emphasize the importance of learning biological sciences
along with calculations and to understand this science that requires statistical
analysis (actual calculations).
