This innovative new introduction to Mathematical Statistics covers the important concept of estimation at a point much earlier than other texts (Chapter 2). Thought-provoking pedagogical aids help students test their understanding and relate concepts to everyday life. Ideal for courses that offer a little less probability than usual, this book requires one year of calculus as a prerequisite.
