ASA/CRC Press Launch Second Book in Series: Visualizing Baseball by Jim Albert

摘要

Last year, the ASA and CRC Press combined forces to produce the Statistical Reasoning in Science and Society series. The idea was to produce short and inexpensive books about a range of topics aimed at professionals across many fields, the general public, and high-school and college students. The second book in the series is Visualizing Baseball by Jim Albert, author or editor of 10 books, including Analyzing Baseball Data with R, Curve Ball, and the Handbook of Statistical Methods and Analyses in Sports. Here, Albert answers a few questions about his new book and what inspired him to write it.
