INVESTIGATING STATISTICAL CONCEPTS, APPLICATIONS, AND METHODS (WITH CD-ROM) combines investigation and exposition to explore statistical ideas and techniques. Many of the investigations ask you to use technology such as statistical software and Java applets. A combination of practice, homework, and application problems emphasize actual studies.

MIND ON STATISTICS emphasizes the conceptual development of statistical ideas and seeks to find meaning in data. Authors Jessica Utts and Robert Heckard satisfy students' natural curiosity by actively engaging them with inspiring questions and explaining statistical topics in the context of excellent examples and case studies. MIND ON STATISTICS balances the spirit of statistical literacy with the statistical methodology taught in general introductory statistics courses. The authors built the book on two learning premises: (1) New material is much easier to learn and remember if it is related to something interesting or previously known; (2) New material is easier to learn if students actively ask questions and find the answers for themselves. More than any other text available, MIND ON STATISTICS motivates students to develop their statistical intuition by focusing on analyzing data and interpreting results, rather than on mathematical formulation. A wide range of interesting and real examples provides further motivation for students to learn about statistics.

In their own classrooms, through their popular texts, and in the conferences they lead, Bob Johnson and Pat Kuby have inspired hundreds of thousands of students and their instructors to see the utility and practicality of statistics. Robert Johnson and Patricia Kuby's ELEMENTARY STATISTICS, Tenth Edition has been consistently praised by users and reviewers for its clear exposition and relevant examples, exercises, and applications. The Essentials version consists of the first 11 chapters from ELEMENTARY STATISTICS, Tenth Edition.

Schools & Teaching

Built on the theme of statistical thinking, this book presents statistics as a complete body of knowledge rather than a collection of mathematical techniques. Chapters integrate quality management coverage and build upon previous concepts to encourage problem solving. The text is intended for use in conjunction with statistical software or spreadsheets. Each chapter presents computer output with appendices highlighting step-by-step instructions for Minitab and SAS.

Education & Reference

Through years of teaching experience, John S. Lawson and John Erjavec have learned that it doesn't take much theoretical background before engineers can learn practical methods of data collections, analysis, and interpretation that will be useful in real life and on the job. With this premise in mind, the authors wrote ENGINEERING AND INDUSTRIAL STATISTICS, which includes the basic topics of engineering statistics but puts less emphasis on the theoretical concepts and elementary topics usually found in an introductory statistics book. Instead, the authors put more emphasis on techniques that will be useful for engineers. With fewer details of traditional probability and inference and more emphasis on the topics useful to engineers, the book is flexible for instructors and interesting for students.

Regression Analysis: Concepts and Applications focuses on thinking clearly about and solving practical statistical problems. The approach leads from the theoretical (meaning conceptual not mathematical) to the applied, the idea being that samples (using theory) tell the investigator what needs to be known about populations (for application).

Iyer, Hariharan K.

Revised edition of a highly successful textbook for the introductory statistics course that focuses on how to make sense of data in the context of solving "real world" problems. Computer usage is an integral part of the volume and the computer's use in handling data is reinforced throughout with output examples from the Execustat, SAS, and Minitab statistical software systems. A data disk is included. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.

Understanding Statistics/Book and Disk

Ott, R. Lyman

This text provides a succinct introduction to business statistics and is designed for courses in which the computer plays a significant role. It focuses on problem solving and conceptual understanding. In this edition, the computer's role has been further enhanced; new and up-to-date printouts and instruction on Minitab and Execustat appear. A new chapter on statistical quality control, focusing on modern statistical process, is included.
