Collection of Books on Medical Statistics

Dear All

This is my collection of books on biostatistics which i have uploaded for all to share...Please feel free to download and share the links with your colleagues and friends

Keep sending me a feed back so that i can add more books to my collection

Happy downloading

The Physical Principles of Magnetism


The links is on torrent format. You can try downloading it using utorrent.

"“The Physical Principles of Magnetism . . . is such a classic – a comprehensive introduction to all aspects of magnetism . . . The corrected reissue is a welcome addition to this much-needed archival series. Dr. Morrish presents an excellent introduction to the physics and mathematics of magnetism without oversimplification . . . This respected and timeless book clearly elucidates these principles."" – Edward Della Torre, The George Washington University, President of the IEEE Magnetics Society

The IEEE Press is pleased to reissue this essential book for understanding the basis of modern magnetic materials. Diamagnetism, paramagnetism, ferromagnetism, ferrimagnetism, and antiferromagnetism are covered in an integrated manner – unifying subject matter from physics, chemistry, metallurgy, and engineering. Magnetic phenomena are discussed both from an experimental and theoretical point of view. The underlying physical principles are presented first, followed by macroscopic or microscopic theories. Although quantum mechanical theories are given, a phenomenological approach is emphasized. More than half the book is devoted to a discussion of strongly coupled dipole systems, where the molecular field theory is emphasized.

THE PHYSICAL PRINCIPLES OF MAGNETISM is a classic “must read” for anyone working in the magnetics, electromagnetics, computing, and communications fields.

Essential Bioinformatics by Jin Xiong



Essential Bioinformatics is a concise yet comprehensive textbook of bioinformatics, which provides a broad introduction to the entire field. Written specifically for a life science audience, the basics of bioinformatics are explained, followed by discussions of the state-of-the-art computational tools available to solve biological research problems. All key areas of bioinformatics are covered including biological databases, sequence alignment, genes and promoter prediction, molecular phylogenetics, structural bioinformatics, genomics and proteomics. The book emphasizes how computational methods work and compares the strengths and weaknesses of different methods. This balanced yet easily accessible text will be invaluable to students who do not have sophisticated computational backgrounds. Technical details of computational algorithms are explained with a minimum use of mathematical formulae; graphical illustrations are used in their place to aid understanding. The effective synthesis of existing literature as well as in-depth and up-to-date coverage of all key topics in bioinformatics make this an ideal textbook for all bioinformatics courses taken by life science students and for researchers wishing to develop their knowledge of bioinformatics to facilitate their own research.

Saunders Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX-RN® Examination

A useful review tool in preparing for the NCLEX-RN examination, this full-color guide is based on the latest NCLEX-RN test plan including alternate item formats. In an outline format, it comprehensively reviews all areas of nursing, including maternity, pediatric, medical-surgical, psychiatric, and gerontologic. More than 4,000 practice questions are included in the book/CD-ROM package, along with comprehensive rationales and test-taking strategies.

* Text and accompanying CD-ROM provide a total of 4,000 practice questions. The CD-ROM includes all 1,800 questions from the book, plus over 2,200 more.
* Every question includes a correct answer, rationales for all responses, test-taking strategy, level of cognitive ability, integrated process, category of client needs, and reference to a major nursing text.
* Alternate item format questions, including fill-in-the-blank, multiple-response, and illustration questions, provide exposure to these new formats on the NCLEX-RN exam.
* A comprehensive exam consists of 265 questions with content areas in the same percentages as the current NCLEX-RN test plan.
* Pharmacology is emphasized with 13 pharmacology chapters, a medication and intravenous calculation chapter, and a pediatric medication calculation chapter.
* Pyramid to Success sections provide an overview of each chapter plus a focused guide for review.
* Pyramid Terms offer a quick review of key content areas.
* Pyramid Points, located throughout the content outlines, identify content that typically appears on the NCLEX-RN exam.
* A chapter written by a student who recently passed the NCLEX-RN exam offers perspective on overcoming anxiety.
* A drop-down calculator is included on CD-ROM, to assist in answering medication questions.
* CD-ROM allows practice in quiz, study, or exam modes, with questions selected from content area, integrated process, or category of client needs.
* Now in full color!
* Addresses issues and areas of difficulty for the foreign-educated nurse in a new, separate chapter.
* Emphasizes leadership, delegating, and prioritizing client care, reflecting the new focus on the Board exam.
* Adds leadership and management selection categories to the CD-ROM important areas on the exam.
