Title overview

Probability & Statistics, 4th Edition is a revision of the well-respected text. It presents a balanced approach of the classical and Bayesian methods and now includes a chapter on simulation (including Markov chain Monte Carlo and the Bootstrap), coverage of residual analysis in linear models, and many examples using real data. Calculus is a prerequisite, and a familiarity with the concepts and elementary properties of vectors and matrices is a plus.
