"This book takes a unique approach of utilizing computer simulation methods to introduce students to the key ideas of statistical inference.Methods such as bootstrap intervals and randomization tests are very intuitive to novice students and capitalize on visual learning skills students bring to the classroom. With proper use of computer support, they are accessible at very early stages of a course with little formal background. Our text introduces statistical inference through these resampling and randomization methods, not only because these methods are becoming increasingly important for statisticians in their own right but also because they are outstanding in building students' conceptual understanding of the key ideas"--
