Reviews


unique style of presentation
i have read chapters 7, 8 and parts of chapter 11 all regarding correlation and regression techniques. I think this book's style is quite interactive and unique, and in some ways the best.

Don't waste money
Terribly organized, poorly explained.
Don't waste money.

Straightforward approach
I attended Worcester Polytechnic Institute for both my undergraduate and graduate degrees in statistics, so I have been taught by each of the 3 authors of this textbook. While I have not seen the final version of this text, I know the authors' approach to be very applied and straightforward, and definitely worthwhile.

It is a very readable book.
Compared to other books on statistics, I find this book very easy to understand. The concepts are clearly and concisely explained without the long and tedious mathematical manipulations. The approach is applications-and-technology oriented. I would recommend this book to students who like to put statistics to immediate use.

Awful
This is the most horrible college textbook i've ever had in my undergraduate classes. It is very unclear and unorganized. The problem sets are very poor tests of understanding of material. This text is absolute garbage. I've read better cereal boxes.
