Free Statistics Textbooks
Like so many of the topics in mathematics, statistics is a field of study that is often utilized by a variety of professions. Many traditional and online statistics textbooks are promoted for students of those fields. Rather than scatter statistics books across The Free Textbook List, I will be adding all of them here. Seems like it makes the most sense to include it in the math textbooks area since the most common prerequisites for any statistics course are basic math and algebra.
Statistics is the study of the collection, organization, analysis and interpretation of data. In one form or another, virtually every business will use some level of statistical data to help maintain and grow their business.
