Summary: Understanding, viewing and interpreting data as it relates to realistic problems has become the focus of the modern statistics courses. This book stresses data analysis, graphical interpretation, and decision making. Retaining their non-intimidating approach, the authors provide a clear understanding of the concepts and applications of statistics, while students the opportunity to observe and actually carry-out computer generated solutions using Microsoft Excel and Minitab. - Back cover.
