Lind/Marchal/Wathen: BASIC STATISTICS FOR BUSINESS AND ECONOMICS, Seventh edition is a derivative of the best-selling STATISTICAL TECHNIQUES IN BUSINESS AND ECONOMICS, offering the essential topics of statistical tools and methods delivered in a student friendly, step-by-step format. The text is non-threatening and presents concepts clearly and succinctly with a conversational writing style. All statistical concepts are illustrated with solved applied examples immediately upon introduction. Modern computing tools and applications are introduced, but the text maintains a focus on presenting statistics content as opposed to technology or programming methods, and the seventh edition continues as a “students” text with increased emphasis on interpretation of data and results.
