From the Publisher
Early emphasis on data analysis (chapter 1) provides students with a visual representation of data and prepares them to make meaningful statistical inferences based on visual and computational results in later chapters.
Utilization of real data from a variety of sources, such as engineering and computer science, reinforces the relevance of statistics and probability to your students' particular area of academic interest.
Careful data analysis is stressed by the use of a smaller number of data sets. As practicing scientists do in the real world, students learn to apply a variety of statistical techniques to a single data set.
Equal treatment is given to the classical approach and the confidence interval approach to hypothesis testing.
