 Don't be misled by title and lack of descriptionJan 30, 2009
By K. Lee
I bought this book thinking that it contains all answers for the problem. This book is thin and only contains limited number of answers. It skips lots of answers for the problem. It'll be good if you want to do selected problem, but it's not good if you need answers for every questions. It's over $50, and it's not worth it. Fortunately, my professor gives class whole answers from Instructor manual.

Throw you money in the streetSep 18, 2008
By B. Reid
"Not impressed"
This book is brutal - poorly written, bad examples. I was asked by someone forced to use this book for a class for help. We ended up using my old stats book to actually understand the concepts.
If you have a choice between buying this book or throwing your money in the street - take the street option - at least that's quick and painless. In the end either option will leave you with the exact same understanding of basic statistics.
