About this Item

LIGHTNING FAST SHIPPING! A heavily used, but still working copy. Coffee stain and wrinkling to the edge of the pages when a tired undergrad fell asleep and knocked their cup over on their books. The binding and pages of the book have been reinforced with tape, has tape and stickers on the cover, as well as lots of notes (some of the answers in the learning activities may be filled in) on the pages. Definitely not pretty, but it's a working copy at a great price that ships fast. ~ Book does NOT contain an access code or CD/DVD. Seller Inventory # #48E-00155

About this title

Synopsis:

The authors encourage an active approach to learning statistics through many in-depth activities that give students the opportunity to test or demonstrate their understanding of statistical concepts. The Second Edition is based on contemporary research on memory and the “testing effect” which requires students to answer questions to facilitate their long-term retention.

Review:

“The text is the most thorough I have seen as far as going through examples. After this text, students are almost guaranteed to be able to complete these statistical measures on their own.”

—Elizabeth Axel, Adelphi University
(Elizabeth Axel)

“The most impressive feature of the text is the manner in which it invites the student to interact with and digest the material covered in each chapter.”

—Lyon Rathbun, University of Texas, Brownsville
