Introductory Statistics

by Jay L. Devore, Roxy Peck

This text combines traditional coverage of beginning probability and statistics with emphasis on real applications taken from a wide variety of published sources. Designed for a one-semester course, it emphasizes concepts and an intuitive presentation of core methodology using a wide variety of applications. While not presupposing the use of a statistical computer package, the role of the computer in data analysis is illustrated with examples that show output from Minitab, SPSS, and SAS.
