EZ-101 Statistics
Books in the EZ-101 Study Keys series are intended as brush-up reviews for a variety of college-101 courses. They are designed as a set of classroom "notes" that reflect typical lecture material presented in a classroom over the course of a semester. As such, they make handy supplements to college textbooks and serve as valuable pre-exam reviews. This overview of statistics covers nine general descriptive statistics, shape, probability, probability distributions, planning a study, the population proportion, the population mean, Chi-square analysis, and regression analysis.

"EZ-101 Statistics" is an okay guide.
As an absolute beginner, this guide worked a little for me, in attaining an understanding of the complex Chi-Square equation.
I am struggling to understand the sampling equation, involving sampling distribution.
This book does not provide a complete step-by-step process.
Having an example problem worked out step-by-step, then being able to imitate the flow of the problem, would decrease the anxiety toward understanding the complex process of sampling distribution.
I don't understand why it is so difficult for book publishers to develop a universal book that thoroughly entails every single detail regarding the steps that must be taken to successfully solve a mathematical function (in this circumstance, sampling distribution).
The art of explaining something in a step-by-step manner, feels as though it has become a thing of the past, and yet, in present time, people still possess great anxiety and uncertainty in performing mathematics. Mostly because he/she knows they do not have a book to lean upon for support, in guiding them to understand every single step that must be performed in order to achieve the correct result of what the problem is entailing.

Good super general and quick overview of the techniques available. I found it useful as a refresher for work.
