The success of the open-source statistical software “R” has made a significant impact on the teaching and research of statistics in the last decade. Analyzing data is now easier and more affordable than ever, but choosing the most appropriate statistical methods remains a challenge for many users. To understand and interpret software output, it is necessary to engage with the fundamentals of statistics. However, many readers do not feel comfortable with complicated mathematics. In this book, we attempt to find a healthy balance between explaining statistical concepts comprehensively and showing their application and interpretation using R. Now in its second edition, this introductory statistics textbook conveys the essential concepts and tools needed to develop and nurture statistical thinking. It presents descriptive, inductive and explorative statistical methods and guides the reader through the process of quantitative data analysis. This revised and extended edition features new chapters on logistic regression, simple random sampling, including bootstrapping, and causal inference.
