The Basic Practice of Statistics, 9th Edition is an introductory statistics textbook authored by David S. Moore, William I. Notz, and Michael A. Fligner. Published in 2021 by W.H. Freeman & Company, this work provides college students with a grounded foundation in data interpretation and statistical decision making.
The pedagogical material is organized into distinct thematic arcs. Initial chapters examine descriptive tools, including graphical displays, numerical summaries, scatterplots, correlation, linear regression, and two-way tables. Subsequent sections focus on data production through sampling methods, experimental design, and data ethics, before introducing probability structures, binomial distributions, sampling distributions, confidence intervals, and basic significance testing.
A central feature of the text is its hallmark Four-Step Process, designed to guide learners step by step through complex statistical problems. By emphasizing current, real-world data across every chapter, the textbook aligns directly with the curriculum needs of college students and instructors in introductory statistical methods courses.
