About this title

Synopsis

Introductory Statistics provides a solid introduction to statistics for students in one-semester or two-semester courses. Students learn the core statistical concepts in an applied setting, and can access more advanced topics (multiple regression, ANOVA, and Experimental Design) through chapters available on a modular basis. The fifth edition employs technological tools such as Minitab Release 12, the TI-83 graphing calculator, Excel, and the Internet to investigate statistical problems.
