Synopsis
An introductory text for nontechnical students that integrates traditional statistical inference with the more modern idea of data analysis. Material begins with simple data sets and proceeds to those with more structure. Examples are plentiful and have been chosen from diverse fields, making the subject accessible to students of any academic field. Contains many pictures, as well as detailed calculations with step-by-step instructions and formulas that indicate in mathematical notation exactly what is being done. At the end of each chapter is a brief summary which reviews the material and explains key terms. Following this are questions which help readers review main new concepts and ideas, and practice problems (many with real data sets). Requires limited background in mathematics.Book Details
