Understanding statistics

This is an excellent new text, which meets the A-level requirements of Statistics as a subject in its own right and as a part of Mathematics.

It is also a very thorough introduction to the subject for students in higher education who need a grounding in Statistics related to other disciplines.

The book is written in a friendly style, with lively text, interesting contexts, and potted biographies of significant mathematicians.

It includes a huge number of worked examples and exercises, and over 80 projects, which give students the confidence to put theory into practice.
