With a new emphasis on the same "real data" professionals use to make evidence-based decisions, Healey's STATISTICS: A TOOL FOR SOCIAL RESEARCH AND DATA ANALYSIS, 11th edition, and the MindTap digital learning solution introduce the fundamental concepts of statistics and their practical application to contemporary social issues. Examples from daily life illustrate the practical value of statistics in government, education, business, media, politics and sports. A student friendly approach breaks down complex material and helps learners understand the importance of statistics -- no advanced mathematical knowledge required. Students gain skills they will need as professionals in a social science field and as statistically literate consumers of social research.
