Former correspondent for The Economist, current columnist for Yahoo!, and professor at the Harris School of Public Policy at the University of Chicago, Charles Wheelan lives in Chicago with his family.
The field of statistics is rapidly transforming into a discipline that Hal Varian at Google has called "sexy". And with good reason - from batting averages and political polls to game shows and medical research - the real-world application of statistics is growing by leaps and bounds. In Naked Statistics, Charles Wheelan strips away the arcane and technical details to get at the underlying intuition that is key to understanding the power of statistical concepts. Tackling a wide-ranging set of problems, he demonstrates how statistics can be used to look at questions that are important and relevant to us today. With the trademark wit, accessibility and fun that made Naked Economics a bestseller, Wheelan brings another essential discipline to life with a one-in-a-million statistics book that you will read for pleasure.
既然已经有好几篇大作来评论这本《赤裸裸的统计学》了,本人就不再狗尾续貂了。然而关于这本书里翻译或排印的错误,非常有必要罗列在此,以供书友们借鉴。 1.第100页:第二行的“99.9999%”应为99.999%;且图5-5最左端的“175亿美国成年人”应为1.75亿。 2.第163页:图9-3上...
评分 评分这是一本很适合我的统计学入门书本。研究生的专业是数据挖掘,常常要用到一些统计的知识,但是由于当时急功近利的不求甚解,只求知道怎么用,不想深究为何用,以至于在这个崇尚大数据的时代,让我不能长时间地深入地全面地忽悠他人。哎,黑发不知勤学早,信口方悔读书迟!...
评分这不是关于这本书的看法,只是看书的时候隐隐约约想起来的闲言碎语。 随着移动互联网的兴起,数据变得在线,我们逐渐走进大数据时代,一个前所未有的时代。在许多地方我们可以看到大数据展现的神奇魔力,也一再担忧大数据所带来的隐私问题。 然而,有一点却被大家无意识地忽...

概率科普经典。
评分有时候我想,什么是最重要的。严谨的推导能让我们前往圣杯之路,而intuitive让我们在以为走出去的地方,回到自己存在的中心。顺便一说,自从有了电子版,妈妈再也不用担心我的钱包了
评分:无
评分整本书不用任何公式能解释清抽象的统计概念,可见作者功力。
评分全书讲的东西只是stats sampling的部分,太基础,太浅了,但举的例子还是蛮好的。ps 作者一看就不是统计学家。。
