STATISTICS FOR MANAGEMENT AND ECONOMICS ABBREVIATED, 8e, emphasizes applications over calculation. It illustrates how vital statistical methods and tools are for today's managers--and teaches you how to apply them to real business problems. Using a proven three-step "ICI" approach to problem solving, the text teaches you how to IDENTIFY the correct statistical technique by focusing on the problem objective and data type; how to COMPUTE the statistics doing them by hand, using Excel, or using MINITAB™; and how to INTERPRET results in the context of the problem. This unique approach enhances your comprehension and practical skills. The text's vast assortment of data-driven examples, exercises, and cases covers the various functional areas of business, demonstrating the statistical applications that marketing managers, financial analysts, accountants, economists, and others use. These comprehensive applications give you hands-on practice, while solid pedagogical elements make the material more accessible and easy to apply to your world. In addition, learning resources such as ThomsonNOW™ and the Student Suite CD-ROM maximize study time to help you achieve the results you want. Completely up-to-date, the eighth edition offers comprehensive coverage, current examples, and Excel 2007 and MINITAB 15™ content.

Unclear,
By Rovert (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Statistics for Management and Economics, Abbreviated Edition (with CD-ROM and InfoTrac) (Hardcover)
I used this book a semester ago in my probability class and I must say this is one of the worst textbooks I've come across with. There are plenty of exercises in the book and like the reviewer above said, it covers a lot. However, my friends and I all find the explanations are unclear and unhelpful.

This review is from: Statistics for Management and Economics, Abbreviated Edition (with Essential Textbook Resources Printed Access Card) (Hardcover)
This was a great deal. The book was in excellent condition, arrived promptly, and the price was about $70 less than I would have paid buying from the college. I'm in the first year of my masters and I plan to use Amazon for all my texts.
