Designed for students who are not from a mathematical background, this introductory statistical text emphasizes ideas over computation. It highlights the relevance of statistical concepts and their applications. Examples are based on real data drawn from a variety of disciplines. An early emphasis on distribution makes difficult topics such as sampling distributions, confidence intervals and significance tests less confusing. Exercises, bullet lists and highlighted boxes are used to reinforce information.
