Recensione

"My teaching assistants and students, as well as other statistics instructors in my department, regard it as the best introductory statistics book available...The connection of the dialogue with the real world ... is the book’s greatest strength. It keeps ... many of the students engaged in a subject where they often expect to be bored." -Daniel S. Levine, PhD, University of Texas at Arlington

"...it is a rigorous yet clear text with an emphasis on power that ...is lacking in many other introductory texts... I love the idea of focusing on Excel...I ... have been using Glenberg for the past 4 or 5 years....I will seriously consider its adoption (and almost certainly will adopt it)." &
