95% of Introductory Statistics students will never take another Statistics course. What do you want your students to learn?



Discover the Power of Real Data



Mario Triola remains the market-leading statistics author by engaging students of each edition with an abundance of real data in the examples, applications, and exercises. Statistics is all around us, and Triola helps students understand how this course will impact their lives beyond the classroom-as consumers, citizens, and professionals.



Essentials of Statistics, Fourth Edition is the ideal text for instructors who want a more economical and streamlined text for their introductory statistics course. Drawn from Triola's Elementary Statistics, Eleventh Edition, this text provides the same student-friendly approach with material presented in a real-world context.



The Fourth Edition contains more than 1,700 exercises (18% more than the previous edition); 89% are new and 81% use real data. The book also contains hundreds of examples; 86% are new and 92% use real data. By analyzing real data, students are able to connect abstract concepts to the world at large, teaching them to think statistically and apply their conceptual understanding using the same methods that professional statisticians employ.
