Description

Statistics is a subject of many uses and surprisingly few effective practitioners. The traditional road to statistical knowledge is blocked, for most, by a formidable wall of mathematics. The approach in An Introduction to the Bootstrap avoids that wall.

It arms scientists and engineers, as well as statisticians, with the computational techniques they need to analyse and understand complicated data sets.
