The authorsbelieve that it's important for students to learn and analyze both quantitativeand categorical data. As a result, the text pays greater attention to theanalysis of proportions than many other introductory statistics texts. Conceptsare introduced first with categorical data, and then with quantitative data.The 5th Edition enhances the student and instructor experience andprovides a more accessible introduction to statistical thinking and practice.
