本書特色

●Fundamental concepts and procedures are clearly explained, and special effort has been made to clarify topics in statistics that are often seen as "mystifying."
●Unnecessary math, computational busy work, and subtle technical distinctions are avoided without sacrificing either accuracy or realism.
●Single examples permeate whole chapters, or even several related chapters, serving as handy frames of reference for new concepts and procedures.
●Each chapter begins with a preview and ends with a summary, lists of important terms and key equations, and review questions.
●Key statements appear in bold type, and step-by-step summaries of essential procedures, such as solving normal curve problems, appear in boxes.
●Important definitions and reminders about key points appear in page margins.
●Scattered throughout the book are examples of computer outputs for three of the most prevalent programs: Minitab, SPSS, and SAS.
●Progress Checks are introduced within chapter sections and are designed to minimize cumulative confusion. Each chapter ends with Review Questions.
●Questions have been selected to appeal to student interests and provide real-world examples such as a t-test analysis of global temperatures to evaluate a possible greenhouse effect (13.7).
●Appendix B supplies answers to questions marked with an asterisks while other appendices provide a practical math review complete with self-tests, a glossary, and tables of statistical distribution
