David Moore and William Notz’s Statistics: Concepts and
Controversies (SCC) introduces liberal arts majors to
statistical ideas—and shows them how use those ideas to think
about the statistical claims they see every day from polls,
campaigns, advertising, public policy, and many different fields
of study. The ultimate goal is to equip students with solid
statistical reasoning skills that will help them understand
impact of statistics on all aspects of our lives.
The new edition offers SCC’s signature combination of engaging
cases, real-life examples and exercises, helpful pedagogy, rich
full-color design, and innovative media learning tools, all
significantly updated.
