Introductory Statistics and Random Phenomena Uncertainty, Complexity and Chaotic Behavior in Engineering and Science

Reviews Highly data-oriented, with an unusually large collection of real-life examples taken from industry and various scientific disciplines… The book departs from the standard fare, by [also] including detailed coverage of such contemporary topics as chaotic dynamical systems, the nature of random...
