What is the correlation of computational biology with bioinformatics?
Computational biology, as defined in the link, is a more broad classification, under which bioinformatics is included. The book,"Statistical Methods in Bioinformation" by Ewens and Grant gives a good understanding of the mathematics and probability theory involved in forming conceptual models of DNA and types of statistical analyses. Bioinformatics is more math than biology, but both are essential.

What are the statistics for a lawyer?
An attorney may become very involved in statistical analyses, although it is generally the use of statistical analyses as presented in the court room rather than the actual calculation of statistics. The presentations are done by expert statisticians or experts in related fields (public health, enviromental sciences, epidemiologists, bioinformation (DNA) scientists to name a few). Attorneys may be involved in issues of public health. For example, a company is suspected of contaminating the ground water. A class action suit is launched against the company. The attorney must show through presentations that there is good evidence of harm and the pollution is traceable to the company. The adequacy of sampling data will certainly be an issue. I did not find good websites on this topic, but there are some recent books. These are the ones I found: http://www.amazon.com/Statistics-Law-Morris-H-DeGroot/dp/0471055387 http://www.columbia.edu/~bl6/sflrev.htm Discrimination cases may also require statistical analyses. This link provides a description of books related to this topic. https://www.air.org/publications/documents/statbooks.pdf
