This tutorial offers a basic hands-on approach to statistical analysis for chemists and spectroscopists. Without involving complicated mathematics, this book is designed to provide the reader with the basic principles underlying the use of common mathematical and statistical tools. Particular emphasis has been given to problem-solving applications and the proper use and interpretation of spectroscopic data. With exercises throughout, this book is also suitable for use as a textbook in analytical chemistry, instrumental analysis, and statistics in chemistry courses.

"...The authors should be congratulated for providing spectroscopists who do not have a mathematical background with an introduction to important statistical issues." --Edward V. Thomas, SANDIA NATIONAL LABORATORIES, Albuquerque, New Mexico (ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY)
"This column continues to serve a vital educational role for those spectroscopists with an interest-but little background-in the statistical underpinnings of the new chemometric methods that now come on their instruments." --ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY
