| Abstract
|
:
|
Statistics: A Bayesian Perspective is a general introductory test that only assumes familiarity with college algebra and offers the following significant features: it is the only introductory textbook based on Bayesian ideas, it combines concepts and methods, it presents statistics as a means of integrating data into the scientific process, it develops ideas through uncommonly interesting and real-world examples, it introduces, early on, ideas of data analysis and experimental design, and it includes a data disk that also contains Minitab macros specifically useful for calculations.
