Riassunto:

Pruim introduces the foundations and applications of statistics to upper-level undergraduate students. His general approach is probability for statistics rather than probability first then statistics, so he discusses statistical ideas even as he is introducing the probability necessary to support them. He uses the R software package throughout as a computational tool both for performing analyses in applications and for exploring the foundational material. His topics are what statistics is, data, probability and random variables, continuous distributions, parameter estimation and testing, likelihood, introduction to linear models, and more linear models.
