Statistics is defined as the science and practice of developing
knowledge through the use of empirical data expressed in
quantitative form-that is, in numbers. In Live Stress-Free with
Statistics and Numbers, Dr. Vasant Cjapnerkar illustrates how
statistics and numbers play a vital role in our everyday lives. He
explains how you can use statistics can help to alleviate the
stress in your life because they provide practical, objective ways
of viewing your problems.
One of the first examples he uses is the way in which he asked
his children to have their children. If they allowed for at least
two to four years between each child, they and the grandparents
would have the chance to spend time with them at the ages when they
would get the most from it. He built on the statistic that most
children begin playing with their friends around age four-a theory
that enabled him and his wife to fully enjoy their
grandchildren.
Since he has traveled to over eighty-seven countries, using his
educational background, he has realized that people make statements
based upon minimal information and hence are stressed out when they
are pressed to quantify their statements. Live Stress-Free with
Statistics and Numbers was written to provide them with a greater
comfort level with statistics and numbers-a vital part of
everything we do. There is very little in life that has no number
associated with it.
