Electronic Statistics Textbook (Electronic Textbook StatSoft)
http://www.statsoft.com/textbook/stathome.html
This Electronic Statistics Textbook offers training in the
understanding and application of statistics.
The material was developed at the StatSoft R&D department
based on many years of teaching undergraduate and graduate
statistics courses and covers a wide variety of applications,
including laboratory research (biomedical, agricultural, etc.),
business statistics and forecasting, social science statistics and
survey research, data mining, engineering and quality control
applications, and many others.
The Electronic Textbook begins with an overview of the relevant
elementary (pivotal) concepts and continues with a more in depth
exploration of specific areas of statistics, organized by "modules,"
accessible by buttons, representing classes of analytic techniques.
A glossary of statistical terms and a list of references for further
study are included.
