Can you make it even more complicated?

[Andrew Dobrow · Rating 2 out of 5]

This book somehow found a way to make college-level statistics even more complicated. I had much better luck using free resources found around the web.

This was the companion reference for a statistics course in my MBA program. While the professor tested exclusively on his lectures, the book provided a unique resource that could assist with general class comprehension and served as a bilingual (Math and English) translator that could provide a different perspective on concepts to assist with learning. The professor insisted the book was unimportant for the class, but I regularly went back to it to fully understand and restate my statistics confusions.

Also, it's pretty dense material. Without a basis for understanding advanced math, much of this textbook would seem like gibberish. It's when it's used as a targeted reference that this text excels.

Hated everything about numbers, business, and finance.

Lærerig bog med mange eksempler. Kan benyttes til opslag om sampling, hypothesis testing, confidence intervals, regressioner og decision theory m.m. Se særligt for gennemgang til Excel.
