This has to be the worst book I've ever encountered
 Customer Rating:  Score = 1 Score = 1 Score = 1 Score = 1 Score = 1
There were errors all throughout the book. Two of the critical tables in the back were either incomplete or incorrect. The author clearly has no idea how make concepts clear, nor were the definitions and examples adequate. The answers in the back of the book are not detailed and provide no examples of how the answers were derived.

The companion CD-ROM was useless. It contained numbers and information that had to be manually re-entered into a useable format. Examples on the CD were as unuseable as the text.

The Student Solutions Manual that is recommended for this book provides neither definitions nor examples.

This book, I hesitate to call it a textbook, should be removed from any school curriculum.

I wish I could rate it with negative stars. This book would receive -3 stars.


Nearly flawless book in introductory statistics.
 Customer Rating:  Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4
I found this introductory statistics textbook as a very appropriate companion when taking an intro statistics course. The author does a good job on making concepts clear with definitions along with detailed examples. The selected answers in the back of the book unfortunately are not detailed and do not give the student steps on how the answer was derived. The printouts of software experiments using SAS, SPSS, MINITAB, etc, in the text, I found very useful and supplemental in learning the material. It clearly describes and shows the steps on how the projects were performed on the specified software application.

Unfortunately, the companion CD-ROM was a disappointment. Rather than being full of clear and well thought out examples and definitions, it instead contains some bland text along with confusing examples.

Besides the companion CD-ROM, the textbook itself is well planned out with clearly written text and straightforward examples.
