Interesting article on the misuse and misunderstanding of statistics --
concludes with a quick review of Bayesian techniques.
>From the article: 'Even when performed correctly, statistical tests are
widely misunderstood and frequently misinterpreted. As a result,
countless conclusions in the scientific literature are erroneous, and
tests of medical dangers or treatments are often contradictory and
confusing.'
