Introduction to Statistics and Data Analysis

Roxy Peck, Chris Olsen, and Jay Devore's new edition uses real data and attention-grabbing examples to introduce students to the study of statistics and data analysis. Traditional in structure yet modern in approach, this text guides students through an intuition-based learning process that stresses interpretation and communication of statistical information. Simple notation - including the frequent substitution of words for symbols - helps students grasp concepts and cement their comprehension. Hands-on activities and interactive applets allow students to practice statistics firsthand. "Introduction to Statistics and Data Analysis, 4th edition, International Edition", includes updated coverage of the graphing calculator as well as expanded coverage of probability.
