Description

Dr. Janice Derr covers all aspects of statistical consulting. Using text and video, she integrates three themes that form the perspective of the book. First, a statistician should treat each client as a potential collaborator. Second, diversity must be appreciated. Students will see a variety of cultures, styles of communication and negotiation, and learning preferences in the book. Third, experienced statisticians and clients must work together in the process of training statistical consultants. On the CD-ROM, video segments bring the material to life and cover each aspect of statistical consulting by demonstrating good and bad techniques. - from Amzon
