Tables for Statisticians and Biometricians

Abstract

STATISTICIANS have for long been familiar with Prof. K. Pearson's “Tables for Statisticians” as the standard exposition of the theoretical conceptions and practical procedures adopted by the Biometric Laboratory at University College. The handsome and expensive production of the tables, and the abundant introductory matter, were features which, from its first appearance, compensated for the partial or personal tone which characterised the treatment of controversial topics.

Tables for Statisticians and Biometricians.
