Data analysis for everyone
Data in the real world are dynamic and sometimes messy. This complexity can intimidate students who are new to math and statistics ― but it’s also what makes statistics so interesting!
Embracing these characteristics, Introductory Statistics teaches students how to explore and analyze real data to answer real-world problems. Crafted by authors who are active in the classroom and in the statistics education community, the 3rd Edition pairs a clear, conversational writing style with new and frequent opportunities to apply statistical thinking. Its tone and learning aids are designed to equip any student to analyze, interpret, and tell a story about modern data, regardless of the student’s mathematical proficiency.
Also available with MyLab Statistics
By combining trusted author content with digital tools and a flexible platform, MyLab™ Statistics personalizes the learning experience and improves results for each student. With MyLab Statistics and StatCrunch®, an integrated web-based statistical software program, students learn the skills they need to interact with data in the real world.
