About the Book

An applied introduction to probability and statistics, now in a practical, digital eBook format. For a one- or two-semester course; calculus background presumed, no previous study of probability or statistics is required. Probability and Statistical Inference, Global Edition is written by three veteran statisticians, emphasising the existence of variation in almost every process, and how the study of probability and statistics helps us understand this variation. Designed for students with a background in calculus, this book continues to reinforce basic mathematical concepts, with numerous real-world examples and applications to illustrate the relevance of key concepts.
