Modern statistics is very different from the dry and dusty discipline of the popular imagination. In its place is an exciting subject which uses deep theory and powerful software tools to shed light and enable understanding. And it sheds this light on all aspects of our lives, enabling astronomers to explore the origins of the universe, archaeologists to investigate ancient civilizations, governments to understand how to benefit and improve society, and businesses to learn how best to provide goods and services.
Aimed at listeners with no prior mathematical knowledge, this Very Short Introduction explores and explains how statistics work, and how we can decipher them.
