Statistics in Toxicology Using R

As statistical methods play key roles in the design and analysis of toxicological studies, toxicologists, especially those not educated in statistics, require good statistical guidance to follow. Written by a leading authority in statistics in toxicology, this book presents an introduction to the key statistical concepts required in toxicology. It keeps mathematical formulae to a minimum and incorporates detailed worked examples with R code throughout.
