Description
Statistics in Action teaches a modern approach to statistics that uses graphing calculators or statistical software and allows readers to place more emphasis on statistical concepts and data analysis than on following recipes for calculations. The text is intended to be used as much as a dialog as a reference; readers will have to be thoughtful as they paruse the text. An activity introduces each major topic, allowing readers to experience the major concepts of statistical thinking before going on to confirm them through further analysis (often involving simulation) and practice with data. Statistics in Action gives the design and analysis of both experiments and surveys an honest treatment, rather than forcing them into overly simplistic models.
