Understanding Statistics: Basic Theory and Practice

by Grant Foster

Understanding Statistics covers the most important statistical methods at an introductory level, assuming no prior knowledge of statistics and not requiring calculus. Rather than adopt a "cookbook" approach, the emphasis is on understanding fundamental principles so the reader will know not just how it works, but why. This book provides a solid basis for a complete introduction to elementary statistics.

Grant is a friend of mine and he has a great way of explaining things. I'm looking forward to reading this book and have already found it refreshing and readable in the first few pages.
