- Summary
- Most texts on statistics for business and management students are limited to introducing the techniques of describing and analyzing data. This book shows the importance of considering sources also; not only the whereabouts of published data, but also their strengths and weaknesses, and the issues involved in the compilation of internal company data. In this way it brings together the four elements of quantitative analysis: Knowledge of sources; Organization of raw data for statistical application; Use of appropriate techniques; interpretation of results.
- The practical, relevant approach is emphasized by the inclusion of numerous case studies, self-assessment questions and assignments, making the book appropriate for classroom use or self-study.
