Review:

Synopsis:

Popular in its first edition with researchers and practitioners and widely adopted for undergraduate courses, the new second edition of Statistics: A Spectator Sport continues to give readers a conceptual understanding of statistics without complex statistical computations. Presuming no statistical background and beginning with the most fundamental methods for drawing statistical inferences to a variety of real-world applications, Jaeger clearly describes and illustrates statistical procedures.
