Essentials of Statistics, First Edition, is the book for these instructors. Drawn from Triola's Elementary Statistics, 8e, Essentials has the same strong pedagogy: conversational writing style, flow charts, margin essays, ample number of examples that involve real data, numerous and varied exercises, and emphasis on interpretation.
