Mario Triola’s Elementary Statistics remains the market-leading introductory statistics textbook because it engages readers with an abundance of real data in the examples, applications, and exercises. Statistics is all around us in our daily lives, and Triola is dedicated to finding new real-world examples and data sets that make sense for today’s reader. The Eleventh Edition contains more than 2000 exercises, 87% of which are new, and 82% of which use real data. It also contains hundreds of examples, 86% of which are new and 94% of which use real data. By analyzing real data, students are able to connect abstract concepts to the world at large. As a result, they gain conceptual understanding and learn to think statistically, using the same methods that professional statisticians employ.

A Rare Author of Exceptional ClaritySeptember 10, 2009 Erol Esen(Webster, NY United States) I was specifically interested in Mario Triola's explanation of the Hypothesis Testing and found him to be clearer than most other authors. Triola's teaching has that rare approach to the reader: anticipating what the reader may erroneously think about something, and then reiterating what is correct, and why. He adds excitement and encouragement to the reader as only a teacher would to a student by writing: "You should study the following example until you thoroughly understand it. Once you do, you will have captured a major concept of statistics." That paragraph, people may argue, is not needed. But this is the difference between terse writing and not. It triggers emotional memory.
