Statistics (Fourth Edition)
by David Friedman Robert Pisani Roger PurvesWe are going to tell you about some interesting problems which have been studied with the help of statistical methods, and show you how to use these methods yourself. We will try to explain why the methods work, and what to watch out for when others use them. Mathematical notation only seems to confuse things for many people, so this book relies on words, charts, and tables; there are hardly any x's or y's. As a matter of fact, even when professional mathematicians read technical books, their eyes tend to skip over the equations. What they really want is a sympathetic friend who will explain the ideas and draw the pictures behind the equations. We will try to be that friend, for those who read our book.
The Longevity Project: Surprising Discoveries for Health and Long Life from the Landmark Eight Decade Study
by Howard S. Friedman Leslie R. MartinWe have been told that the key to longevity involves obsessing over what we eat, how much we stress, and how fast we run. Based on the most extensive study of longevity ever conducted, The Longevity Project exposes what really impacts our lifespan-including friends, family, personality and work. Gathering new information and using modern statistics to study participants across eight decades, Dr Howard Friedman and Dr Leslie Martin bust myths about achieving health and long life. For example, people do not die from working long hours at a challenging job – many who worked the hardest lived the longest. Getting and staying married is not the magic ticket to long life, especially if you're a woman. And it's not the happy-go-lucky ones who thrive – it's the prudent and persistent who flourish through the years. With questionnaires that help you determine where you are heading on the longevity spectrum and advice about how to stay healthy, this book changes the conversation about living a long, healthy life.
