Statistics

I liked the quick shipment of the book. I had no problems at all with it. The only thing that was a shock was that I recieved the teachers edition rather than the student edition, but there really is not much difference between them.
Decent Introduction
2/17/2008
This textbook is a decent introduction to statistics. Usually as an introduction text, its a mile wide and an inch deep. This textbook is no different, you'll learn everything from graphs and charts, to various types of distribution. The CD that comes with the textbook is confusing, but it did have one pdf with a summary of formulas for each chapter which was extremely helpful. The only major problem with this textbook is the problems. They are simply too predictable and often won't prepare you for the real world or even worse... an exam. Overall, this is a decent introductory textbook, not the worst but also not the best on the subject. Its done to earth and the beginner should have no problem picking it up. One final note, it also contains guides on how to use the statistics function on the TI-83, which is almost a must have if you plan on learning from this textbook.
