Customer Reviews

Most Fun I've had with Statistics

I'm writing this book review only because I haven't seen anything under the Review section except feedback on how the item was shipped. I'm not a profession reviewer so this will be short and simple and to the point. In short, this book is amazing! I'm a teacher at a community college who had statistics ages ago using a confusing and complicated book. Anyway, I'm picking up this book and reviewing it so I can tutor some of the students that are having trouble. I at first dreaded looking back over this stuff, but I've found this book is such an amazing and motivational read! It puts everything out there in an easy-to-understand way with real practical examples. Plus, it has examples showing you how to use a calculator, which seems easier for teachers in general instead of making students plugging-and-chugging the much more complex formulas (which there aren't too many in this simple book anyway). It says Elementary so it doesn't include Calculus based methods, but I feel it gets the points across much more effectively without all the complexity. And the author includes a fold out page of charts for your convenience which I really like. All the charts are the same ones that are in the back of the book, but this chart has all your formulas on it and so much more all consolidated in one place so it is really awesome. Great for students and teachers alike, and an easy read for people wanting to brush up on statistics. A+

Good start in STATS

I used the 8th edition in my intro STATS class a year ago and I loved the book. I found that he talks about the meaning of stuff and not just gives quick excel fixes like a lot of intro STAT books. He does go over how to do the problem on the TI-83 but he still goes over the formulas and how you can do with out. In my last intro stats book my department had it talked too much about excel and the calculator making students forget that this is math and not just plug in the number

The Greatest !

If you ever wanted a Stats book that was EASY to understand buy this one! I did very well in this course and I honestly learned with this book. Explanations are wonderful! The disk makes life simple.
