This book takes a lot of things on faith. It assumes we know how they derived some of the equations. I spent more time trying to figure out if they divided or multiplied or added something than I did on the actual calculations. (Don't get me started on their explanation of p-values!!) They did not spend time explaining how they got from point A to point B ........ Reminded my of that cartoon about math "And then a Miracle Occurs". I have found far better Stats text books. Actually I bought two others to back this one up so I could figure out what they were trying to tell me. So not worth the money. If I had not needed this particular text book for a class I would have not bought it. The others I chose to buy on my own were far better and explained how to do the problems easier.
The text is a great resource for learning statistics, particularly for someone like myself who has never had a statistical course. I love the approaches to applying the concepts which are terrific reinforcements. Kudos to the authors.
Excellent book !!
Met my expectations was affordable & easy obtained.
Arrived fast and looks like description.
