My Prof really likes this book and has used previous editions too. My opinion - so far so good. In my limited review of the book the examples are good and the language is not technical. This course/book is part of my graduate studies in biology. The book is primarily business focused but with a profs help it is totally applicable to scientific data evaluation. Otherwise, it is approaching week 4 of 12 in my class and we haven't really relied on the book. My only real comment is to check with your campus bookstore/professor and see if it is supposed to come with a student version of Minitab (the software associated with the text). My online order did not come with Minitab, which I need for my stats course.

Purchased this book used not new, for $73.99 from a private dealer on Amazon. I would have to say that the text is easy to understand, lots of material (lots) included and covered, the CD included is quite helpful as well, since it provides chapter highlights in PowerPoint, practice quizzes and homeworks, tutorials and samples for Excel, and the "MegaStat" add-on for the Excel program, which enables users to fully utilize Excel's ability to perform statistical calculations. Good purchase overall at the used purchase price, not sure if the case would be the same at the retail price, just make sure that the text includes the CD.

Statistis is hard enough however this book came on time and in perfect condition. Plus the CDRom was attached in the inside cover in perfect condition.

This is a very informative and useful text. The CDRom was a pleasant suprise with everything you could want just a click away. I viewed the book online, but I prefer to have the actual book in hand. When I received the book, I was encouraged to sit down and read it even more. This is a must have for anyone who wants to learn about statistics.

This book was in very good condition with very little writing and no high lighting! It also contained the cd's that came w/ the book which was great.

This book arrived quickly (within one week, standard shipping) and the seller informed me through mail when the product had been shipped. I found that very helpful. THe condition of the book was also very good,but there was some writing/markings on some of the pages. However, it wasn't enough that I was distracted or bothered by it.
