Statistics made practical

Deborah J. Rumsey’s guide connects introductory statistical ideas with the tasks of working through and interpreting data. It covers graphs and charts, probability, confidence intervals, hypothesis testing, and statistical formulas, using examples and real-world problems to show how these concepts are applied. The second edition is described as tracking a typical first-semester statistics course, with explanations aligned to classroom methods. Its scope bridges coursework and everyday or workplace data analysis, giving readers a reference point for both learning core techniques and considering what charts and calculations do—and do not—show.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Students taking a first-semester statistics course
  • Readers seeking practical explanations of statistical concepts and calculations
