The most I do with Excel is make protein standard curves and calculate lab inventory. I read this book to prepare for quantitative chemistry and refresh on my statistics. I found this book NOT USER FRIENDLY. After reading the book, I looked at other excel statistical analysis books and wished I had bought one of them instead. Had I not read the “Teach Yourself visually Microsoft Excel 2010” just before I read this book, I would have been lost, the author expects you to know Excel terms. While reading the book, I was wishing I had read the Excel Formula book before I read this one. Now I realized this is just a bad book and there are better books out there.
