Most biologists use nonlinear regression more than any other statistical technique, but there are very few places to learn about curve-fitting. This book, by the author of the very successful Intuitive Biostatistics, addresses this relatively focused need of an extraordinarily broad range of scientists. The book will likely be purchased by a high proportion of biological laboratories, for frequent reference. The author gets about 3000 visits per month to his curvefit website, with the average visitor viewing 9 pages.
