I had to get this book for a graduate level class. This is a well written book. I am coming to the conclusion that a text book needs to be in color to emphasize content or examples. This is very helpful in this book which is math laden. You will only need to know basic algebra (if that) for this material. Some higher math may help you. There are a lot of examples that show how to use the formulas. Much of which is "plug & chug" to get an answer. The concepts are well explained and there are good real-world examples. There are plenty of solutions in the back of the book. The examples also include graphs to show how the data sets are presented. There are plenty of reference tables for t, f, z and chi values. The CD that came with mine has a stat analysis add-on for Excel. It was called Megastat. I liked it better than the Excel data analysis tool. The CD had a lot of data sets to play with as well. If you can put information into a spreadsheet, you can use this book to help build an understanding of the analysis output. This is a good foundation book for statistical analysis.

I teach business statistics at a university and have used several textbooks. This textbook does a very good job of explaining statistics and the problems are good ones. The book is easy to read and understand and I would highly reccomend this textbook.

Awesome to buy a text book for $1.81 the s&h was $3.99...total $5.20! Awesome-Amazon is the best place to find deals!!!.

The book was accurate and quick would do business again. book had some pages stuck together with ink that I had to get apart from each other. other than that it was good.

Book arrived ahead of projected date, was in great shape and included the cd as promised.

the book itself is in great condition except that it doesnt come with the CD which is a vital part of the package

The product was advertised as new, but the product was not. It appeared to be new from the outside, but most of the book was highlighted and written on. I was not told that it had highlighting and writing in it, but rather, I was told that the book was new.

I brought this book into the semester, and I am so grateful for the fast delivery & the book was in great condition!!!

Item was sold as a book/cd combination. However, when I received the item, only the book was included. I will not use this seller again.

The book was shipped fast and was in great condition. The order also included a study guide companion book. Would order again.
