内容説明

Written by the author of the "Elementary Statistics", (7th ed) this brief paperback presents the core of elementary statistics in a language that is designed to speak to late-1990s students. The book focuses only on the essentials, allowing ready use in a variety of course structures, and promotes understanding and motivation by presenting statistics in a context that relates to personal experiences. It features modern ideas and an easy-to-comprehend exposition, and places consistent emphasis on real data and graphical analysis. Descriptive coverage of linear correlation and regression appears early.
