Today, statistics is a required subject in high school mathematics-regardless of whether a student is in the arts or sciences-and in universities as well, data science education is gaining popularity across all disciplines. As a result, statistics has become a core foundational subject. However, many people still find statistics difficult, dislike it, or even hate it altogether. For those people, I've written a statistics book that is easy to read and approachable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is not a textbook-it's a casual read. As long as you understand basic fractions, you'll be fine. Occasionally, you may come across slightly more complex equations, but feel free to skip them. They're written to be treated like magical spells in a fantasy novel-just part of the scenery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is for a wide audience: high school or university students just beginning to study probability and statistics, liberal arts students who are suddenly required to take data science courses at university, working adults who now need to relearn statistics, and even science majors struggling to earn credits in their statistics class. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTable of Contents: \u003cbr\u003eChapter 1: Dice and Lotteries\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Dice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Lotto\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeople with the same Birthday\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Gacha\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAre Lottery Players Just Not Thinking Clearly?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFair and Unfair Lotteries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003eChapter 2: Beauty Looking Back\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe back view of a long-haired figure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSo, which is the case?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBackground research Matters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoes testing the entire population with PCR tests make sense?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCould group testing be the solutions?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuality Control and Investment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArtificial Intelligence and Mr. Spock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003eChapter 3; What does 'within the margin of 'error' mean?\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePutting Eye Drops From the Second Floor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWithin The Margin of Error\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe More, The Better\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeauty Looking Back, Again\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003eChapter 4: Are TV Ratings Really Accurate?\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow are TV Ratings Calculated?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJust Complaining, or Do They Have a Point?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIs the TV Ratings Data Accurate?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTo calculate television ratings precisely\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003eChapter 5: That's just your opinion, isn't it?\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIs the portion of fries always more than advertised?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo weight loss supplements work?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo English learning materials work?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCould your stop lying with statics?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Katsumi Konishi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798289174208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/22\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.18d","brand":"Katsumi Konishi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48801065599231,"sku":"9798289174208","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/statics-that-back-you-up-katsumi-konishi-9798289174208","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
