Statistics: The Art & Science of Learning from Data, 4/e (Paperback)

Christine A Franklin (author), Bernhard Klingenberg (author) Alan Agresti (author)

商品描述

Statistics: The Art and Science of Learning from Data, Fourth Edition, takes a conceptual approach, helping students understand what statistics is about and learning the right questions to ask when analyzing data, rather than just memorizing procedures. This book takes the ideas that have turned statistics into a central science in modern life and makes them accessible, without compromising the necessary rigor. Students will enjoy reading this book, and will stay engaged with its wide variety of real-world data in the examples and exercises.

The authors believe that it’s important for students to learn and analyze both quantitative and categorical data. As a result, the text pays greater attention to the analysis of proportions than many other introductory statistics texts. Concepts are introduced first with categorical data, and then with quantitative data.

MyStatLab™ not included. Students, if MyStatLab is a recommended/mandatory component of the course, please ask your instructor for the correct ISBN and course ID. MyStatLab should only be purchased when required by an instructor. Instructors, contact your Pearson representative for more information.

MyStatLab is an online homework, tutorial, and assessment product designed to personalize learning and improve results. With a wide range of interactive, engaging, and assignable activities, students are encouraged to actively learn and retain tough course concepts.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

《統計學:從資料中學習的藝術與科學》第四版以概念為基礎,幫助學生理解統計學的本質,學會在分析資料時提出正確的問題,而不僅僅是背誦程序。本書將使統計學這門在現代生活中成為核心科學的理念變得易於理解,同時不會犧牲必要的嚴謹性。學生們將享受閱讀本書,並通過其中豐富的實際數據示例和練習保持興趣。

作者認為學生學習和分析定量和定性資料都很重要。因此,本書在比許多其他入門統計學教材更加重視比例分析。首先介紹定性資料的概念,然後再介紹定量資料。

不包含MyStatLab™。學生們,如果MyStatLab是課程的推薦/必修組件,請向您的教師索取正確的ISBN和課程ID。只有在教師要求時才應購買MyStatLab。教師們,請聯繫您的Pearson代表獲取更多信息。

MyStatLab是一個在線作業、教學和評估產品,旨在個性化學習並提高成績。通過各種互動、引人入勝和可分配的活動,鼓勵學生積極學習並牢記難以理解的課程概念。
