preface

This fifth Australasian and Pacific edition of Basic Business Statistics: Concepts and Applications

continues to build on the strengths of the fourth edition, and extends the outstanding teaching

foundation of the previous American editions, authored by Berenson,

Levine and Szabat.

The teaching philosophy of this text is based upon the principles of the American book, but

each chapter has once again been carefully revised to include practical examples and a language and style that is more applicable to Australasian and Pacific readers.

In preparation for this edition we again asked lecturers from around the country to comment on the format and content of the fourth edition and, based on those comments, the authors have worked to create a text that is more accessible – but no less authoritative – for students.

Part 5 contains additional chapters: Chapter 16 on multiple regression and model building,

Chapter 17 on decision making, Chapter 18 on statistical applications in quality and productivity

management, Chapter 19 on further non-parametric tests and two brand new chapters:

Chapter 20 on business analytics and Chapter 21 on data analysis. This chapter will be especially useful to students who wish to understand how the concepts and techniques studied in this book all fit together. The Part 5 chapters can be found within the MyLab and student download page via our catalogue.
