News: AS Statistics textbook - draft chapters

The textbook for the AS Statistics has been written and will be published soon. It will be a single book covering the 3 modules, Z1, Z2 and Z3. The text for Z1 will be the same as that for Statistics 1 but all the questions in the exercises will be changed. Z2 and Z3 will be completely new, written for readers who are not studying mathematics.

Those chapters that are available in electronic form may be accessed from this site. Some others are in a format which is unsuitable for the web-site and photocopies of these are available from the MEI office.
