I like statistical rethinking. It’s targeted at science phd students so the focus is “how can you use statistics for testing your scientific hypotheses and trying to tease out causation”. It doesn’t go deep into the mathematics of things (though expects readers to be decently numerate and comfortable analysing data without statistics). It only really talks about Bayesian models and how to fit them by computer, so won’t cover much of the frequenting side of things at all.
