3.0 out of 5 stars
Very skimpy and uneven explanations,

This review is from: Schaum's Outline of Beginning Statistics (Schaum's) (Paperback)
There are many questions of beginning statistics which this book either has very skimpy and unsatisfactory answers or has no answers at all. For example, the book goes directly from explaining normal distribution to binomial distribution except that it never quite explains binomial distribution except from graphs. Granted, statistics concepts are very hard to explain in words. But the book seems to breeze through many important concepts with one sentence or two.
The book covers the following: 1)Descriptive Measure 2)Probability 3)Discrete Random Variables 4)Continuous Random Variables 5)Sampling Distributions 6)Estimation and Sample Size Determination 7)Tests of Hypothesis (one and two populations) 8)Chi Square 9)ANOVA 10)Regression and Correlation 11)Nonparametric Statistics This is not a bad supplementary workbook but it is rather poor as a primary text on statistics. Overall, I barely recommend this book for those who are beginning statistics (intended audience).
