Levine, Krehbiel and Berenson have teamed up once again to present statistical
concepts for today’s business student.
Students need a frame of reference when learning statistics, especially when
it’s not their major. Business Statistics: A First Course teaches students how
statistics are used in each functional area of business in a briefer, one-semester format.
The fifth edition of this text continues to provide students with lots of
classroom examples, homework exercises, case studies, and business software but has
updated these features in order to better relate to today’s student.
