Business Statistics : A First Course

Rate this book
The world of business statistics has grown larger, expanding into and combining with other disciplines. And, in a reprise of something that occurred a generation ago, new fields of study - this time with names such as informatics, data analytics, and decision science - have emerged. he seventh edition of Business Statistics presents a comprehensive study of all these developments while retaining the rich pedagogy and style of the earlier editions. The guiding philosophy of the book has been to help students see the relevance of statistics in their own careers by providing examples drawn from the functional areas in which they may be specializing. The cases and learnings will give students ample practice in understanding how to apply statistics to business and to familiarize students with the use of spreadsheet and statistical software.

Would have gotten the full five stars unless it was for the mistakes in the sample questions and answers! Very thorough but easy to understand at the same time.

This textbook was difficult at times, but by the end I was feeling more confident in understanding what I was reading. Doing hands-on problems helped me to be able to interpret the sometimes VERY dense text.

This is a required textbook for university. While concepts are explained in a relatively straightforward manner, the numerous editing mistakes make it a difficult read and undermine the learning experience. Whoever proofread or edited this book should be fired.
