• Introduction to Statistical Thought (Michael Lavine)

  The book is intended as an upper level undergraduate or introductory graduate textbook in statistical thinking with a likelihood emphasis for students with a good knowledge of calculus and the ability to think abstractly.

• Introduction to Statistical Thinking (Benjamin Yakir)

  This book offers a detailed, illustrated breakdown of the fundamentals of statistics. Develop and use formal logical thinking abilities to understand the message behind numbers and charts in science, politics, and economy.

• Introduction to Statistical Thinking, with R, without Calculus

  This is an introduction to statistics, with R, without calculus, for students who are required to learn statistics, students with little background in mathematics and often no motivation to learn more.

• Foundations in Statistical Reasoning (Pete Kaslik)

  This book is designed for students taking an introductory statistics class. The emphasis throughout the entire book is on how to make decisions with only partial evidence. It focuses on the thought process.

• Statistics Done Wrong: The Woefully Complete Guide (Reinhart)

  Scientific progress depends on good research, and good research needs good statistics. But statistical analysis is tricky to get right, even for the best and brightest of us. You'd be surprised how many scientists are doing it wrong.

• Lies, Damned Lies: How to Tell the Truth with Statistics

  The goal is to help you learn How to Tell the Truth with Statistics and, therefore, how to tell when others are telling the truth ... or are faking their "news". Covers Data Analysis, Binomial and normal models, Sample statistics, confidence intervals, hypothesis tests, etc.

• Think Stats, 2nd Edition: Exploratory Data Analysis in Python

  This concise introduction shows you how to perform statistical analysis computationally, rather than mathematically, with programs written in Python. You'll become familiar with distributions, the rules of probability, visualization, and many other tools and concepts.

• O'Reilly® Think Bayes: Bayesian Statistics in Python

  If you know how to program, you're ready to tackle Bayesian statistics. With this book, you'll learn how to solve statistical problems with Python code instead of mathematical formulas, using discrete probability distributions rather than continuous mathematics.

• Applied Statistics with R (David Dalpiaz)

  This book provides an integrated treatment of statistical inference techniques in data science using the R Statistical Software. It provides a much-needed, easy-to-follow introduction to statistics and the R programming language.
