I read it for a class. most of the information the text contains I had prior knowledge of. the textbook though is a good resource.

I found this to be one of the more readable text books. Gave nice refreshers on statistical stat tests for the different types of experiments and studies you might do. The diagrams and examples were meaningful to understanding the content.
