8vo (24 cm), XV, [1], 486, [2] pp. Publisher's laminated boards (minor shelf wear; binding slightly dusted; ownership entry on the front free endpaper). "Many current texts in the area are just cookbooks, and as a result, students often do not understand why they perform the methods they are taught or why those methods work. The strength of this book is that it addresses these shortcomings by using examples, often from real life and using real data, to show how the fundamentals of probabilistic and statistical theories arise intuitively. 'A Modern Introduction to Probability and Statistics' includes numerous quick exercises to provide direct feedback to students and over 350 exercises, half of which have answers, with half of those offering full solutions. A companion website provides access to the data files used in the text and, for instructors, the remaining solutions. The only prerequisite is a first course in calculus. The text covers standard statistics and probability material, progresses beyond traditional parametric models to the Poisson process, and introduces modern methods such as the bootstrap."
