Statistics CompanionThe Essential Guide to Statistical Textbooksaf Erik M. Boye

As the title states, this little book is meant to be a companion to any student who has to learn statistics. The book is a pedagogic helping hand for new students who often are frightened by their bricklike textbook in statistics.

• 134 pages + statistical tables
• pedagogic explanations of the most important concepts and subjects in statistics
• 60 illustrative graphs and drawings
• examples of standard exercises – with solutions – at the rear of the chapter The author has 30 years of experience teaching statistics and descriptive economics at universities in Denmark and 25 years of experience in writing pedagogical textbooks.
Statistics Companion is a translation of a Danish book that has given many responses from relieved students who claim that the book has saved their study.
