I'm writing this book review only because I haven't seen anything under the Review section except feedback on how the item was shipped. I'm not a profession reviewer so this will be short and simple and to the point.
In short, this book is amazing! I'm a teacher at a community college who had statistics ages ago using a confusing and complicated book. Anyway, I'm picking up this book and reviewing it so I can tutor some of the students that are having trouble. I at first dreaded looking back over this stuff, but I've found this book is such an amazing and motivational read! It puts everything out there in an easy-to-understand way with real practical examples. Plus, it has examples showing you how to use a calculator, which seems easier for teachers in general instead of making students plugging-and-chugging the much more complex formulas (which there aren't too many in this simple book anyway). It says Elementary so it doesn't include Calculus based methods, but I feel it gets the points across much more effectively without all the complexity. And the author includes a fold out page of charts for your convenience which I really like. All the charts are the same ones that are in the back of the book, but this chart has all your formulas on it and so much more all consolidated in one place so it is really awesome.
Great for students and teachers alike, and an easy read for people wanting to brush up on statistics. A+
