Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Very Pleased
Delivered on time as advertised. Book was well packed during shipping so no damage. A new copy of this book at Amazon was cheaper than a used copy at the college bookstore. Very pleased..will by all of my school books from Amazon from now on.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Elementary statistics-not
This book was for a elementary statistics class. This book to me was not easy to use. The examples where very hard to follow and didn't make sense most of the time. The book was used for a online stats class thank god my professor provided great notes and examples, cause if I had to just depend on this books examples I would have made a BIG FAT "F". The author should think about making this book more user friendly.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Trash -- utter trash.
I am saddened to see the textbook community to mistake color, flash, graphics, and artifical examples as quality textbook. Although I understand they need to market, this book demonstrates the effect of marketing upon education.

My students complain that the text is difficult to read. Although I know they are new, I have to agree with their opinion. I sat and read the text -- and found it lacking respectable composition and clarity. I feel for my students and will not use the text again.

In addition, the examples are useless. They match the homework at the end of the chapter, but only "teach to the test". What's the point if the student don't learn methods on how to critically think and approach problems? Oh wow, they know what P(Z>1) is, but what do they know to do with it? Nothing!

Perhaps it is time for the educational community to produce their own compact books, customized to what students (and not publishers) need. I cannot recommend this book for anyone and would beg you to reconsider.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Does the trick
I think it's a well written book and it simplifies concepts well enough so that you can understand them better.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Really good book for a basic course!
I purchased this book for a basic statistic course. It's easy to understand and the best way to get an idea of statistic without long formulas or derivations. Recommandable for basic and intermediate stat-classes!
