Overview: The second edition of Business Statistics: Communicating with Numbers provides a unique, innovative, and engaging learning experience for students studying Business Statistics. It is an intellectually stimulating, practical, and visually attractive textbook, from which students can learn and instructors can teach. Throughout the book, the authors have presented the material in an accessible way by using timely business applications to which students can relate. Although the text is application-oriented, it is also mathematically sound and uses notation that is generally accepted for the topic being covered.
My class only went through chapter 17, but I thought the information was well-presented with good examples, and it shows how to do calculations in Excel and R. Other instructions are available for software like Minitab and SPSS and made available at the end of the chapter, but most examples are in Excel or R when using software.
