For a Statistics textbook, it wasn't bad. Mario Triola manages to interject humor throughout the text and gives the book a conversational tone. It won't keep you up turning pages late into the night, but if you have to take a stats class (as I did), this is a good book to read.

quite possibly the worst textbook I have ever had. the material skips around and the charts you need are not easy to find. so glad this class is over.
