Features

　　1. Several exercises refer to material covered in earlier sections and chapters, allowing students to more easily see the connections between concepts.

　　2. Virtually every example and exercise has a real world context. Real data in exercises and examples stimulate students' interest and enhance their comprehension of concepts.

　　3. Notable content includes a strong emphasis on the role that variation plays in statistics, emphasis on the nature of variation in the slope estimate in simple linear regression, and inclusion of a detailed description of pooled t procedures to provide a balance between unpooled and pooled analyses.

　　4. "Simulation Experiments" help students gain an understanding of sampling distributions and the insight they provide, especially when a derivation is too complex to carry out.

　　5. Strong computer coverage, especially with ANOVA and regression, is supported by an abundance of computer output from SAS? and MINITAB? and coverage of computer methods. Inclusion of Java? Applets from Gary McClelland's SEEING STATISTICS, specifically designed for this calculus-based text, allows students to experience statistics firsthand.
