I purchased this book as a requirement for my statistics class in the MBA program a few years ago. The textbook does not provide lengthy explanations or theories behind the methods but does provide excellent examples and solves problems showing each step. In addition to the book, the accompanying PhStat Excel add-in is excellent and very easy to use. The Excel add-in is also very handy should you need statistics in `real-life' (must better than whipping out a book). These two elements combined with an excellent teacher can be very effective. As with any statistics book, if you are not mathematically inclined, this book may seem difficult to understand.

This book is mind-numbing, as are statistics in general. The authors used a lot of words to communicate their message, taking you "all around the mountain" to get where you need to be. You must do a lot of filtering while reading to get to the subject matter and understand the concepts.

this is one of the worst books I have ever encountered. if you actually want to LEARN statistics or any kind of math analysis, stay clear from this book. Conceptual explanation of the material is ABSENT. you will not learn anything except how to follow certain directions on excel. if you want to be more than just a low level manager who just follows directions, but one who actually wants to MAKE directions, then this book is not for you.
Really, this book is horrible.

This book is not written with the student in mind. Your best bet - go to the library and pick up additional basic statistics books to aid in your understanding of the concepts and formulas.
