Statistics for a World That Needs Better Decisions

Every chapter opens with a real story — the Flint water crisis, Facebook’s mood manipulation experiment, the resume discrimination study. Twelve case studies that prove why statistics matters, paired with the tools to analyze them. Interactive Shiny applications, downloadable datasets, a chapter-by-chapter R companion that reproduces every analysis, and plain language throughout. No calculus required.
