5.0 out of 5 stars Statistics Book, October 6, 2008
This review is from: Essentials of Statistics for the Behavioral Sciences (Paperback)
This is a great book. Very logical and straight forward. It makes learning statistics very easy. I took a statistics course a few years ago, prior to the one I am taking now. I had a hard time learning it then, but now I am grasping all the concepts fairly well. This is a good book and it was essentially brand new even though I bought it used. Sweet!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great tables and charts, February 20, 2010
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Essentials of Statistics for the Behavioral Sciences (Paperback)
I had this book for an intro stats course for psychology but foolishly sold it back after the class was over. I'm purchasing it again through amazon marketplace because I'm taking an advanced stats class and would like to have access to the TERRIFIC tables and charts in the back of the book. The professor for the advanced stats class also likes the charts and tables in this particular book and keeps a copy of it just for that.

I didn't give it five stars because the book's odd-only answers irritates me, and because there are some errors in calculations that can be tremendously confusing for beginning stats students. Otherwise it's a great book (and those issues are fairly minor ones).

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book!, April 30, 2009

D.T.C. "xmziangelx" (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Essentials of Statistics for the Behavioral Sciences (Paperback)
Easy to read and understand, easy help on homework problems on odd numbers (let's you check figures), simplifies statistics (however, I would've preferred that the book actually uses the actual signs of the formula rather than use letters in place of a formula). Overall, its a great book and would definitely recommend it.
