Few worked examples makes it a weak choice for text in a basic statistics class
2008/8/13
I have used the earlier editions of this book in my basic statistics class, not because I think it is a good text, but because that was what was in use when I arrived. I personally don't consider it a good text because there are few worked examples. To compensate, I generally hand out a set of problems at the start of class and then work through them in a step-by-step manner.
This text, while containing more detail than the previous iterations, follows the same path. For example, the formula for the standard deviation is given on the bottom of page 40 and the top of page 41. This is followed by a metabolic rate example where the numbers are
1792 1666 1362 1614 1460 1867 1439
The next sentence is
"Enter these data into your calculator or software and verify that
mean = 1600 calories s = 189.24 calories"
No application of this formula is done and others such as the computation of the correlation coefficient are also not worked through.
Since this is a course in basic statistics, my students need to see the formula in action at least once and for the more complex ones, twice. This lack of worked examples is a major flaw in this book if it is to be used as a text. I will avoid it if I can.

Good enough

For a used book it was in excellent condition. Almost never noticed it was used.
As for the content. I was not particularly impressed with the style of this book. No Major issues: good enough. I would not suggest it to someone learning statistics on their own.

Only some of the chapters are good

Clearly, only one of the authors knows how to write textbooks clearly. Some of the chapters were great, others made little sense until being reviewed several times in class.
