Cengage Learning EMEA (Verlag)
978-1-4737-6826-0 (ISBN)
Keller's practical three-step approach to problem-solving demonstrates how statistics are vital for today's managers and economists: it teaches students how to identify the correct technique for a problem or data type, compute the statistics and how to interpret the results meaningfully, equipping them with the practical skills they need in a world of big data, data visualization and social media.
