"The 2024 Release benefits from reviewers' thoughtful comments and suggestions. The detailed changes are in the following section on Enhancements to the 2024 Release. In general, we made several changes to the flow and organization of the text. For example, the sampling distribution of the proportion is added to Chapter 8 (Sampling, Sampling Methods, and the Central Limit Theorem), and the one- and two-sample tests of hypothesis for proportions are now included in Chapters 10 (One-Sample Tests of Hypothesis) and 11 (Two-Sample Tests of Hypothesis). The F-distribution now precedes the two-sample tests of hypothesis in Chapter 11. Several chapter introductions are revised to help explain the significance of the chapter's content. This edition also brings a renewed recognition of diversity, equity, and inclusion to the text, exercises, and examples. As you read the text, you will find an increased diversity of persons and businesses from varied geographic, ethnic, and cultural groups. We hope these changes help promote awareness, consideration, and implementation of diversity, equity, and inclusion in our societies"-- Provided by publisher.
