A Probability and Statistics Companion

"Each chapter includes exercises and explorations for interested readers. This book provides teachers and instructors with interesting real-world examples that can be used as supporting material for introductory courses on probability and statistics. Including chapters on more advanced and practical topics, like stratified sampling, analysis of experimental data and statistical process control, it may also be of interest to professionals and engineers who use statistical concepts in their work. Undergraduate students, who want to delve into practical applications, can use this book supplementary to a theoretical introduction." ( Zentralblatt MATH , 2010)

"Topics include sampling and sample spaces, basic probability, discrete and continuous data, statistical inferences, regression analysis, and experimental design--thus providing broad-based considerations for introductory course instructors to draw from." ( CHOICE , 2009)
