Excellent

This is probably the best text book for school, that I have ever seen. This book in conjunction with the CD, has got to be the best learning source that I have ever used. This one is definately a winner.

Great book, no Complaints

Got the book in under a week and it was in great shape. Thanks

Excellent introductory text!

This textbook is designed to be used in conjunction with a college course. My college years are long past, but I want to learn statistics. I saw a recommendation of this book by a retired professor of statistics in a statistics journal so I just picked it up to teach myself. It is excellent. It is a clearly written, thorough introduction to basic statistics. As an added bonus it comes with practice and testing software on the principles discussed in the text. The text also includes examples of how to work the problems using Minitab and the TI-83 calculator (and occasionally Excel). You do not need to use any of those programs for your study. I am using the Casio fx-9750GA Plus calculator (which I love!) and the statistical program R (which I love even more!!) to do my calculations. If you are interested in learning basic statistics, I highly recommend this book.
