Elementary Statistics in a World of Applications

This text carefully explicates the concepts of introductory statistics for students in various majors, retaining the clear, straightforward and intuitive style that distinguished previous editions. Enhanced and updated, this edition provides still more realistic problems and applications, addresses some of the recent technological advances that are making their mark in the classroom, and displays sensitivity to some of the tenets of the ASA/MAA Committee on the Statistics Curriculum with its increased focus on using real data, projects, and written assignments.
