A one-of-a-kind volume, Learning Statistics Through Playing Cards uniquely utilizes a simple deck of playing cards to explain the important concepts in statistics. Covering many of the topics included in introductory college statistics courses, author Thomas R. Knapp escorts the student through populations and variables, parameters, percentages, probability and sampling, sampling distribution, estimation, hypothesis testing, and two-by-two tables. Each chapter ends with a series of exercises designed to help the student actually manipulate the concept under discussion (the answers are provided at the back of the text). Also included is an annotated bibliography that directs the student toward further readings.
Industry Reviews
"This is a novel approach handling all the basic approaches to statistics-populations, parameters, hypothesis testing, one- and two-tailed tests, contingency tables, etc., and all with a pack of 52 cards. Even exercises are included." -- John G. Taylor DDA-Nyt
