I was sent the wrong book but the problem was cleared right away and I received the correct book in less then a week. Very helpful and great communication. The product was in great condition, just as it was described. Overall great experience

This was a LOT cheaper through Amazon than at my school's bookstore, but I had to buy an access code separately through the MyMathLab site.

This isn't clear when you buy, but if Lab access is required by your college, you will not get the code you need unless you buy at the school bookstore. Fortunately, you can buy the book through Amazon -- for about $50 cheaper than at my school -- and then only pay $25 for the access code on line.

Just be sure you know what you need. Not all classes that come with My--Lab internet segments require that you buy a code, but you can always buy one later.

By the way, MyMathLab is amazing. It's making this Statistics class a piece of cake!

I am amazed and very pleased at the speed in which I received my order and in the perfect condition it was in. I will, from now on, use Amazon for my next purchases.

I bought this book for $92.00 brand new expecting for it to come intact and in good condition. First off, this book doesn't come with the code for mymathlab, which means it was used. And it has a huge gash at the back of the book. Not what I expected at all. Very unsatisfied!

The book was in good condition but the desk that came with book didn't work

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R2IL7U6T7LMFSD This is one of the better textbooks I have
on the subject. One will have to put the
time in but the book does a
good job explaining concepts.
If I may suggest something that
has helped my studies greatly, a little book called
Don't Like to Read, Then Don't, Listen!: How to
Turn Any Type of Text Into Audio Files That Can
Be Read to You!. I know that many students out
there are like me and would rather listen to
material than have to read it themselves. I use
programs like the one that is reading this review
to have my texts read to me. This is a god send
for me. One can get this title on amazon.

Buyers beware of purchasing used books. Classes generally use this text with Course Compass' MyMathLab, and you need a code to access the site. New books come with the code, but if you purchase a used book, the code might be already used. The code I purchased was $57.00. The code is more important than the textbook, so buy used books with caution.

I had to take Statistics as part of my degree cirriculum. On top of that, I was taking this class distance learning style; no classroom teacher, no nothing. So I was really depending on this book to explain the concepts and formulas in an easy way that I could understand. Luckily, the book did just that.

It is VERY well written and I believe anyone could learn Stats just by using this book, as I did. It also comes with a bunch of CDs that contain study guides, answer sheets, and software programs that makes Stats a snap.

If you take a Stats class, or just want to learn Stats on your own, this is the book to get!
