Good for intro to statistics for MBAs

This book is the book we use in our pre-term statistics class in the MBA program at Wharton. It is written by three Wharton stats professors. It is easy to read, but should used in conjunction with a statistical software program such as JMP. It is NOT a book for people trying to learn statistical formulae, etc. as this book focuses on concepts and using statistical software for analysis. There is a second book, used in the regular statistics class at Wharton, called "Business Analysis Using Regression" by the same authors for those who are comfortable with the concepts in this book.
