Description:
Intro Stats, Third Edition extends the teaching innovations
pioneered in the DeVeaux/Velleman/Bock books. Its focus on statistical thinking
and modern practice are evident throughout. Each chapter opens with an
example-and the data from that example are then displayed and analyzed to
introduce new concepts. Graphics and summaries introduced in early chapters are
used throughout the book, helping students become consistent statistical
thinkers.
Intro Stats, Third Edition has a fun, conversational writing
style, real up-to-date data, hundreds of examples based on current events, and
short, accessible chapters. The innovative Think/Show/Tell examples, pioneered
in the first edition, now present new data and discussions. The new For Example
sections illustrate each new concept or method with a brief, worked example.
This text covers all material typical in a one-semester
statistics course, with supplemental chapters on analysis of variance (ANOVA)
and multiple regression included on the book's DVD-ROM. The text maintains its
commitment to the recommendations of the ASA-endorsed GAISE (Guidelines for
Assessment for Instruction in Statistical Education) Report.
