Understanding the concepts of Statistics are important for understanding problems of measurement In any academic area where a student might choose to study. This book is for readers of ages 9 to 90 who want to understand the basic theory of Statistics in a descriptive, but non-mathematical presentation. To do so, a highly imaginative history (a story really) is presented on how W.S. Gosset (1876-1937) could have created Student's t-test. This test is important because it embodies the truth of the Central Limit Theorem, and the book provides a simple but accurate definition of the Theorem and its use. W.S. Gosset (t-test)and Sir Ronald A. Fisher (F-test) are two of the most important people in the history of Statistics and their ghosts still live among us. They are here and will remain among us because they taught us how to use the Central Limit Theorem in the science of measurement. These basic concepts can be taught without using what many students have considered to be a confusing mix of arithmetic and formulas.
