Title overview

An Introduction to Mathematical Statistics and Its Applications is a high-level calculus student's first exposure to mathematical statistics. It provides students who have already taken 3 or more semesters of calculus with the background to apply statistical principles. Meaty enough to guide a 2-semester course, it touches on both statistics and experimental design, which teaches you various ways to analyze data. It gives computational-minded students a necessary and realistic exposure to identifying data models.

The 6th Edition offers 18 new Case Studies throughout; a new downloadable chapter on variance analysis as it applies to factorial data; many content changes throughout the text; and much more.
