Luis Saldanha is a professor of Didactics of Mathematics in the department of mathematics at l’Université du Québec à Montréal, Canada. His research focuses on mathematical thinking, specifically the development of students’ statistical reasoning in relation to their engagement with instruction designed to foster their understanding of statistical concepts.Neil J. Hatfield is an assistant research professor in the Department of Statistics at Pennsylvania State University, U.S.A. His main research interests focus on cognition related to the concept of distribution; the teaching of statistics, data science, and probability; and diversity, equity, and inclusion in STEM.Egan J. Chernoff is a professor of Mathematics Education at the University of Saskatchewan, Canada. His editorial affiliations include Statistics Education Research Journal; The Mathematics Enthusiast; Mathematical Thinking and Learning; Journal of Mathematical Behavior; Canadian Journal of Science, Mathematics, and Technology Education; and more.Caterina Primi is a full professor in Psicometria at the Faculty of Psychology at the University of Florence, Italy. She is an experienced teacher of graduate, post-graduate, and PhD level courses in statistics, research methods, and psychological testing.

"This book definitely makes me think about the ways we normally talk about statistics with our students and our prospective teachers, and that perhaps there are alternative ways for us to introduce data, statistics, and inference than many of us do now. The authors are right-on with their path: Cases--> Collections--> Samples--> Distributions. I applaud that, and also their excellent "mini" and "integrating" activities that they have included throughout the book to get us all thinking and reasoning about quantities in statistics."J. Michael Shaughnessy, Professor Emeritus in Mathematics and Statistics at Portland State University.
