Modern statistics is very different from the dry and dusty discipline of the popular imagination. In its place is an exciting subject which uses deep theory and powerful software tools to shed light and enable understanding. And it sheds this light on all aspects of our lives, enabling astronomers...

Covers basic statistics and applications of major statistical tests. Preents the material in a sequence and approach that can be understood and used by almost anyone. Although this can be(and is) used as a text it is equally as useful as a study-aid for use with courses using more conventional texts....
