Description
In this revised text, master expositor Sheldon Ross has produced a unique work in introductory statistics. The text's main merits are
the clarity of presentation, contemporary examples and applications from diverse areas, and an explanation of intuition and ideas behind
the statistical methods. To quote from the preface, "It is only when a student develops a feel or intuition for statistics that she or
he is really on the path toward making sense of data." Ross achieves this goal through a coherent mix of mathematical analysis, intuitive
discussions and examples.
Audience
This text is written for the introductory non-calculus based statistics course offered in mathematics and/or statistics departments for
undergraduate students of any major who take a semester course in basic Statistics or a year course in Probability and Statistics.
