Understanding Business Statistics

Description

This is a student-oriented text introducing the elements of basic business statistics. Topics range from descriptive statistics to multiple regression and one-way analysis of variance. Reviewers have described the book as “engaging” and the writing as “wonderfully direct.”

“The writing style,” reports one reviewer, “is thoroughly discursive, even chatty, and I think students will find it terrific. Very accessible. The writing definitely is this book's glory. It is certainly more interesting and more engaging than Anderson, Sweeney and Williams. And the anecdotes hit just the right dry, witty tone.”

Another reviewer writes, “This book has a different feel to it. When your read (it), it feels you are in the position of a student learning along with the professor. The author has the gift of being able to make complex things sound simple, or at least understandable.”
