Introductory Statistics Volume 2

Introductory Statistics is designed for the one-semester introduction to statistics course and is geared toward students majoring in fields other than math or engineering. This text assumes students have been exposed to intermediate algebra and it focuses on the applications of statistical knowledge rather than the theory behind it. The foundation of this textbook is Collaborative Statistics by Barbara Illowsky and Susan Dean. Additional topics examples and ample opportunities for practice have been added to each chapter.
