Pros & Cons
Pros
Second half of the book (inferential statistics) is particularly strong. This is pure statistics textbook that teaches how to solve problems using a good old fashioned calculator.
This book is ridiculously huge! Erase that. The humongous book series are wonderful.
Cons
Page 131, notes that you can't multiply the two factorial x!

The explanations are helpful and the book gives you several problems for each topic covered

For example a problem will mention chemistry and math students but then will talk about physics students

By the way the problems are done in the book but theres room on the pages you can do them yourselves

This sequence continues for each chapter section so to keep a student from getting too confused

Most of the later chapters depend on material covered earlier in the book so i wouldnt recommend moving on to another chapter or even section of the book until you know you can follow the steps laid out in the equations if any
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The book is useful for reference too if its been a while since youve done a problem type you can just review a section to review the process of pulling it off correctly

I would not have passed my class if not for this book
