While focusing on design, estimation, and interpretation, the authors reduce the reliance on statistical notation and terminology, and instead identify the fundamental concepts that affect the use of these techniques. The result is an applications-oriented introduction to multivariate analysis for the nonstatistician.

I have to say that this is hands-down the best statistics book I've ever read and the only one out of the pile of books I've purchased that I'm keeping as a reference.

At the risk of sounding even more nerdy than I already am, this was actually the best statistics book I have ever read (and I have read a few of them in the past year and a half). Even if you don't take a class but just have an interest in multiple regression (Jason) or any basic or advanced multivariate statistics technique, I highly recommend this book.
