This text introduces the essentials of the statistical technique. Rather than rote memorization of formulae, the emphasis is on developing an understanding of the underlying logic of statistics. Toward that end, the author uses an informal prose style, and avoids overwhelming the reader with complex notation and derivation. There are numerous exercises and problems graded for difficulty. A list of Greek symbols used in statistics is found inside the back cover for quick reference. INDICE: Chapter 1. Introduction to Statistical ConceptsChapter 2.
