The book is non-theoretical, explaining concepts intuitively and teaching problem solving through worked examples and step-by-step instructions. This edition places more emphasis on conceptual understanding and understanding results.

5 out of 5 stars Ace Your Stats Class   January 21, 2007
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

This is a must have text for anyone trying to learn stats. I am currently in a stats class. The text assigned was mostly theoretical with very little real world explanations and examples. I panicked! I started looking for supplementary material so that I could understand this topic. I was swayed by the reviews of this book. Please take a minute and review them for the fifth edition. The reviews rave about the book. So I bought it, despite the cost. I am so thankful that I did. I am beginning to understand statistics and even enjoy it. I'm finding myself looking forward to my study times so I can learn more. I give all the credit to this book. The author uses real world examples that I can relate to, has lots of examples and reasons why you would use one statistic over another. The other thing I like is that there are lots of exercises for practice that include the answers in the back. I say BUY IT! You won't regret it, I promise.

The service is great, and it came in just a few days. The book was cheaper at amazon.com then it is at school. It has a tutorial that is very helpful as well.


1 out of 5 stars Ew, Math. I've used better texts.   June 24, 2008
I had to purchase this book for a college class; in all honesty, I think it could have been organized better, and it was a bit hard to understand. My opinion might be a little biased, however, because I hate math and I'm not good at it to begin with.
