Consider starting your journey into statistics with Freedman's book, alongside this one. Freedman's approach to statistics is truly commendable and differs greatly from the uninspiring methods often employed in high school and introductory college courses. Many students have voiced their dissatisfaction with their initial exposure to statistics, describing it as dull and dreadful. However, I firmly believe that if this book, in conjunction with Freedman's Statistics, were incorporated into their first course, their experience would be one of inspiration rather than boredom. It's worth noting that if you haven't yet encountered algebraic proofs, some of the exercises and proofs might appear daunting. Nevertheless, rest assured that the exercises are equitable, and solutions can be found in the book's appendix.
