PRESTATISTICS gives you the skills you need to be successful in statistics, whether you are just out of high school or haven't taken a mathematics course in years. Each section in PRESTATISTICS concludes with a paragraph titled "Why We Learned It" that shows you the connection between the topics learned in that section and statistics--and how it will be helpful to you in an introductory statistics course. Nine hundred videos including lectures, example solutions and quick-check exercise walkthroughs enable you to learn the way you want to learn, and WebAssign -- a flexible and fully customizable online solution available with this text--empowers you to prepare for class with confidence
