We take pleasures in presenting to our students, colleagues and readers the second thoroughly revised and enlarged edition of the book Biostatistics. The theoretical discussion in the book has been refined, restructured and updated. While revising the book, a sincere attempt has been made to retain the basic features of the earlier edition, names, viz., lucidity of style, simplicity in presentation and analytic approach to the topics. The following three new chapters have been added to make the book more exhaustive and comprehensive so as to cater to the needs of the students of Biostatistics, Biotechnology, Biology, Pharmacy, Nursing, Public Health, Molecular Biology, Zoology, Medicine, Botany etc. 1.
