Advertised as new but came in an opened wrapping. Seems like the book was slid back into the plastic, wasn’t even partially sealed. Looks like it was actually either lightly used or moderately beat up in the warehouse.
Pages have varying print quality, lots of fading and ink stains throughout the entire book.
Was really cheap (on sale when I bought it) but very low quality. Not a bad textbook for the price, but doesn’t seem as advertised.

great book, not ideal for students, but excellent for working professionals for deep knowledge

The book was kinda damaged because of too tight packaging (as you can see in the picture) which should not be the case. The content is great though.

It is easy to understand with many examples explained in details. It has the answers for the exercises so we can check to see if we do them correctly or not. When I compare some pages in chapter 15 in this paperback book with the ones in the hardcover book, they are the same. We can choose the hardcover or paperback version depend on our need.
The delivery date for this book was Oct 8 – Oct 23 but I got this book on Oct 5. Thank you so much for your fast delivery and your good care of the corners of the book.

This book really needs to be rewritten. It’s so outdated. I bought a used version because it was hard to find, but it could really use an update.

I bought this early into my college experience for a stats class (shocker). It was in great condition. Still is. Worked for the class I needed it for

I’m not a “math person,” and was compelled to take an Introductory Statistics course as the final math class toward my BA. I approached the course with preconceptions after hearing horror stories from other humanities folks about failure, shipwreck, plagues of locusts, and thoughts of suicide.
This is one of the top half-dozen texts of my entire college career.
Not only do the authors make statistics accessible and even fun, they do so in a consistently smart style that simultaneously simplifies statistical concepts while not pandering in the quality of language overall, or occasions for clever asides. While many professors will end up using modern calculators for the problems, the text bases its lessons on the use of tables (normal, t, and chi-square). I found myself following both the professor and, electively, the text for a more full understanding of “old school” methods. Each chapter has enough embedded problems (with answers at the end of the text) that the reviews and other materials provided by my professor were often redundant. I wish I had access to the answers for each chapter review questions, but that can hardly be a criticism in my “student” copy of the text.
I’ll be revisiting this book long after I’ve ceased being a student. It has helped me have more informed attitudes about statistical products in general, which I suppose was a point of the course and the text.

This is a paperback student edition meant only for sale in India. The print quality is quite terrible. Would not have bought it if I knew this.

The book is really well written and clear in explaining statistics methodologies.
It arrived in a good shape.
I recommend it!
