Advanced Statistics Demystified by Larry J. Stephens is an educational book that utilizes a spreadsheet, such as Microsoft Excel, to conduct statistical analysis on data. The book also claims that you can use MINITAB, but I am unfamiliar with that program.

The book has self-study problems and questions that encourage understanding.

I enjoyed the book. Thanks for reading my review, and see you next time.
