    • Summary:An accessible text that explains fundamental concepts in business statistics that are often obscured by formulae and mathematical notation A Guide to Business Statistics offers a practical approach to statistics that covers the fundamental concepts in business and economics. The book maintains the level of rigor of a more conventional textbook in business statistics but uses a more stream-lined and intuitive approach.

The author-an expert in the field-offers concise and straightforward explanations to the core principles and techniques in business statistics. The concepts are intro-duced through examples, and the text is designed to be accessible to readers with a variety of backgrounds. To enhance learning, most of the mathematical formulae and notation appears in technical appendices at the end of each chapter. This important resource: -Offers a comprehensive guide to understanding business statistics targeting business and economics students and professionals -Introduces the concepts and techniques through concise and intuitive examples -Focuses on understanding by moving distracting formulae and mathematical notation to appendices -Offers intuition, insights, humor, and practical advice for students of business statistics -Features coverage of sampling techniques, descriptive statistics, probability, sampling distributions, confidence intervals, hypothesis tests, and regression Written for undergraduate business students, business and economics majors, teachers, and practitioners, A Guide to Business Statistics offers an accessible guide to the key concepts and fundamental principles in statistics.
