Data analysis is of central importance in the education of scientists. This book offers a compact and readable introduction to techniques relevant to physical science students. The material is thoroughly integrated with the popular and powerful spreadsheet package Excel by Microsoft. Excel features of most relevance to the analysis of experimental data in the physical sciences are dealt with in some detail. Fully worked problems reinforce basic principles. Underlying assumptions and range of applicability of techniques are discussed, though detailed derivations of basic equations are mostly avoided or confined to the appendices. Exercises and answers are included at the end of chapters. Further relevant topics are included in online support for the book. Data Analysis with Excel is suitable for undergraduate students in the physical sciences. It will also appeal to graduate students and researchers needing an introduction to statistical techniques and the use of spreadsheets in data analysis.
