Essential statistics, global edition

Abstract

The second edition remains true to the goals of the first edition: to provide students with the tools they need to make sense of the world by teaching them to collect, visualize, analyze, and interpret data. With the help of several wise and careful readers and class testers, we have fine-tuned the second edition to better achieve this vision. In some sections, we have rewritten explanations or added new ones. In others, we have more substantially reordered content.
