MODERN MATHEMATICAL STATISTICSW/APPLICATIONS/CD

by Jay L. Devore, Kenneth N. Berk

Many mathematical statistics texts are heavily oriented toward a rigorous mathematical development of probability and statistics, without emphasizing contemporary statistical practice. MODERN MATHEMATICAL STATISTICS WITH APPLICATIONS strikes a balance between mathematical foundations and statistical practice. Accomplished authors Jay Devore and Ken Berk first engage students with real-life problems and scenarios and then provide them with both foundational context and theory. This book follows the spirit of the Committee on the Undergraduate Program in Mathematics (CUPM) recommendation that every math student should study statistics and probability with an emphasis on data analysis.

I read this from cover to cover. Straightforward, clear, concise, and loaded with great relevant examples.

Amazing book! May be the best textbook in my freshman year. Absolutely the first strong, stable step into statistics.
I will remind myself to read this book again each year, hope so.

Kindle Not Working

I rented this book online hoping to do assignments for my class. However, the majority of the math in the book is unreadable on the kindle app and the kindle app routinely stops functioning as I try to click through pages, leaving me stuck on a page for extended periods of time.
