This text was definitely one of the tougher reads of my statistics career. This book will, without question, mature you mathematically. You will learn how to find the mean, total, and proportion of successes within any type of sample. However, there were a LOT of errors in this text. Also, the Excel tools that are included with the book are not very intuitive.
