The 14th Edition includes new and updated resources and tools to enhance understanding, and provides the best framework for learning statistical concepts. Key features:

  • A brand-new chapter on business analytics makes extensive use of JMP and Minitab to illustrate analytics for the prediction, classification, clustering, and association of data (Ch. 17).
  • Updated Examples  and Using Statistics business scenarios draw from all functional areas of business, helping you connect the concepts you’re learning to your future career.
