商品簡介
Unlike most business statistics textbooks, Vital Statistics offers an approachable, calculus-optional introduction to statistics with a careful presentation of basic inference procedures. Sandholm and Saraniti devote substantial effort to helping students develop intuitions about key concepts in probability before providing a deep treatment of core ideas in statistics. They focus on topics and applications that matter to economists but receive little attention in other textbooks, making this the ideal introductory text for economics students.
