Good Book for Statistical Perspective of data mining

Hi,  Could anybody suggest a good, easy to understand book for  learning the statistical concepts used in data mining ?? ( Logistic Regression, Bayesian networks, MLE, Hypothesis testing, etc...). I am interested in learning these concepts with some examples on real time cases or atleast well framed examples. All the books that i picked up so far discuss only theory and its tough for me to get a hold or expertise on these areas. I would highly appreciate anyhelp regarding this.. Thanks in…See More
