A STUDENT OF THE MASTER

I was lucky enough to have actually taken this class FROM Diekhoff. He is brilliant and his book is the EASIEST to follow of every single stats book out there. I love stats. Thats my intended field and I have read every book I can find on the subject-some of which have been written by monkeys with typewriters. They do not HAVE to be that convoluted-it is NOT that hard to explain things simply -even now-I always refer back to his. BECAUSE- He WALKS YOU THRU IT. Step by step. My junior high school daughter could do the exercises, they are written out so plainly. I guarantee that if you actually DO the exercises in the book-you could teach yourself stats. I just wish the old man would write an advanced stats book for the Grad students.
