A different perspective

This text is easy to understand and read. It goes about the topic of statistics in a different manner than other stat books do. Wardrop explains the topics in real life situations, applicable to what one may really encounter without being a statistics major. I am lucky in that I was able to take the course with Prof. Wardrop and use his book. I took a different stat course earlier but dropped it because the professor and the text in that course were both confusing and boring. Also the information and method of which we were learning was both impractical and frustrating. I would recommend Wardrop and his text over others.
