Overview

Statistics for Business and Economics, 14th Edition introduces statistics in the context of real data, real decisions and real business. The authors highlight the discussion of ethical, data-driven decision making and apply concepts with real data. Inference is emphasized, with extensive coverage of data collection and analysis as needed to evaluate the reported results of statistical studies and make good decisions. Technology is used to help you develop statistical thinking, and to understand the assessment of credibility and value of the inferences made from data by those who consume and by those who produce them.
