Synopsis
Aiming to provide the concepts and tools to analyze data intelligently, the early chapters in this work emphasize collection, display, examination, summary and presentation of data. Inference is reserved for later chapters when students should be familiar with data structures and data variability. The book: uses real data to motivate and explain methods and concepts; emphasizes statistical thinking rather than algebra or arithmetic; uses international examples; stresses graphical and numerical summaries of data before formal inference; and covers topics needed for the intelligent use of statistics in the computer age.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
