520			_aThe third edition of Statistics for Business and Economics maintains the same objectives as the second, namely to introduce students to the basic concepts of statistics and to show them how these concepts can be used in making inferences from business and economic data. The text is designed so that the early chapters can be used for a one-quarter (or a one-semester) introductory course for all undergraduates. The remainder of the text can be used as a second-quarter (semester) follow-up course, with emphasis on special applications such as regression analysis, time series, analysis of variance, or one of the other methodologies included in the later chapters. As in the second edition, we have maintained a unified approach to the subject, attempting both to provide an overall picture of statistics and its role in business and the sciences, and to provide the student with some methodology that will be relevant and useful in other college courses and subsequent fields of employment.
