Review 

"The book is very comprehensive and generally explains not only how specific tests are done but also the theoretical underpinning of these tests. I use the Rosner book quite frequently as a reference for myself. It is definitely a great resource for a practicing researcher, and probably a useful book for a graduate student wanting to learn more statistics."

"This revision of a "classic" textbook for introductory biostatistics is, in my opinion, the most comprehensive and thorough book on the market. Yet it is written and illustrated very clearly. Most importantly, it has many worked examples and exercises that apply the methods to actual data."

Layered, Back-to-Basics Approach to Java Programming

Newly revised and updated, this Fourth Edition of Building Java Programs: A Back to Basics Approach uses a layered strategy to introduce Java programming, with the aim of overcoming the difficulty associated with introductory programming textbooks. The authors’ proven and class-tested “back to basics” approach introduces programming fundamentals first, with new syntax and concepts added over multiple chapters, and object-oriented programming discussed only once readers have developed a basic understanding of Java programming. Previous editions have established the text’s reputation as an excellent choice for thoroughly introducing the basics of computer science, and new material in the Fourth Edition incorporates concepts related to Java 8, functional programming, and image manipulation.
