Summary: "Statistics for management and economics, Tenth Edition, emphasizes applications over calculation. It illustrates how vital statistical methods and tools are for today's managers--and teaches you how to apply them to real business problems. Using a proven three-step "ICI" approach to problem solving, the text teaches you how to identify the correct statistical technique by focusing on the problem objective and data type; how to compute the statistics doing them by hand, using Excel®, or using MINITAB; and how to intepret results in the context of the problem.
