Active Statistics

'This book is an extraordinarily rich and generous resource for teaching statistics. Full of stories about challenging statistical problems, the examples reflect all the messiness of real life, and encourage class discussion of what went wrong and how to do things better. The extensive collection of lesson plans and exercises provides a fine inspiration to adopt a different, more active, style of teaching.' David Spiegelhalter, University of Cambridge

The must-read summary of Andrew Gelman's book: "Red State, Blue State, Rich State, Poor State: Why Americans Vote the Way They Do".This complete summary of "Red State, Blue State, Rich State, Poor State" by Andrew Gelman, a prominent professor of statistics and political science, shows that in the 2000 and 2004 elections, George W. Bush captured the lower-income states in the South, while the Democrats took the richer states in the Northeast and West Coast. In his book, the author explains how the different parts of the country and the different income-level voters are split in their political voting.

Wise Use of Null Hypothesis Tests

Frank S. Corotto earned his bachelor of science in biology at Lafayette College in Pennsylvania, his master of arts in biology at Boston University, and his doctorate in biological sciences at the University of Missouri–Columbia. He worked as a post doc at the University of Utah’s Department of Physiology then went on to teach biology at North Georgia College, later renamed North Georgia College & State University, for 17 years and at the University of North Georgia for eight years. While initially a neurobiologist, he researched in other fields including animal behavior, plant reproduction, and ciliate feeding selectivity. Because of his interest in experimental design, he discovered a primary literature on null hypothesis testing that ran counter to what is in traditional statistics books. The result is Wise Use of Null Hypothesis Tests: A Practitioner’s Handbook.
