A focus on using statistical methods to analyze and interpret results to make data-informed business decisions
Statistics
is essential for all business majors, and Business Statistics: A First
Coursehelps students see the role statistics will play in their own
careers by providing examples drawn from all functional areas of
business. Guided by the principles set forth by major statistical and
business science associations (ASA and DSI), plus the authors’ diverse
experiences, the 8th Edition continues to innovate and improve the way
this course is taught to all students. With new examples, case
scenarios, and problems, the text continues its tradition of focusing
on the interpretation of results, evaluation of assumptions, and
discussion of next steps that lead to data-informed decision making.
The authors feel that this approach, rather than a focus on manual
calculations, better serves students in their future careers. This
brief offering, created to fit the needs of a one-semester course, is
part of the established Berenson/Levine series.
