This edition has retained the non-intimidating approach to describing the concepts and applications of statistics while giving students the opportunity to observe and actually carry out computer-generated solutions using statistics packages like SPSS and MINITAB, or a spreadsheet package like Excel.

A CD-ROM presenting data sets and special Excel macros that Robert Pavur (Professor, U of North Texas) and Kellie Keeling (istant Professor, Virginia Tech) have created will be bound into the back of the book.
