An Introduction to Statistics by Kieth Alton Carlson

The authors encourage an active approach to learning statistics through many in-depth activities that give students the opportunity to test or demonstrate their understanding of statistical concepts. The Second Edition is based on contemporary research on memory and the "testing effect" which requires students to answer questions to facilitate their long-term retention.

"The text is the most thorough I have seen as far as going through examplesAfter this text, students are almost guaranteed to be able to complete these statistical measures on their own."

Elizabeth Axel, Adelphi University
-- Elizabeth Axel

"The most impressive feature of the text is the manner in which it invites the student to interact with and digest the material covered in each chapter."

Lyon Rathbun, University of Texas, Brownsville
