Biostats materials ... Biostatistics is an innovative field that involves the design, analysis, and interpretation of data for studies in public health and medicine. Biostatistics experts arrive at conclusions about disease and health risks by evaluating and applying mathematical and statistical formulas to the factors that impact health.
One of our primary focuses will be to develop an understanding of the various ways in which we can assign a probability to some chance event. We'll also learn the fundamental properties of probability, investigate how probability behaves,...
Here is a nice book "Biostatistics for Animal Science" http://www.lce.esalq.usp.br/arquivos/aulas/2011/LCE5801/Biostatistics%20for%20Animal%20Science.pdf fop animal biologist.
Biostatistics did not spring fully formed from the brow of R. A. Fisher, but evolved over many years. This process is continuing, although it may not be obvious from the outside. It has been ten years since the first edition of this book appeared...

Randomness and Probability
Randomness and probability are two differnet concepts: probaility is a measure (according to measure theory) which measures the randomness. Randomness is the object to be measured by probability. For example,...
Basics concepts of Probability: The Study of Randomness
Biostatistics is the application of statistics to a wide range of topics in biology. The science of biostatistics encompasses the design of biological experiments, especially in medicine,...
