Statistical Inference via Data Science: A ModernDive into R and the Tidyverse, Second Edition offers a comprehensive guide to learning statistical inference with data science tools widely used in industry, academia, and government. The first part of this book introduces the tidyverse suite of R packages, including ggplot2 for data visualization and dplyr for data wrangling. The second part introduces data modeling via simple and multiple linear regression. The third part presents statistical inference using simulation-based methods within a general framework implemented in R via the infer package, a suitable complement to the tidyverse. By working with these methods, readers can implement effective exploratory data analyses, conduct statistical modeling with data, and carry out statistical inference via confidence intervals and hypothesis testing. All of these tasks are performed by strongly emphasizing data visualization.
Key Features in the Second Edition:
The first edition of the book has been used in so many different ways--for courses in statistical inference, statistical programming, business analytics, and data science for social policy, and by professionals in many other means. Ideal for those new to statistics or looking to deepen their knowledge, this edition provides a clear entry point into data science and modern statistical methods.
