Customer Reviews

Perfect second hand text book.

This was a second-hand textbook and it was better than advertised and it arrived quicker than advertised. Couldn't be better.

Great for Independent Learning

This textbook is very easy to follow with many examples to reference. The wording is very simple--nothing too complex throughout the textbook. It also shows 83/84 and 89 step-by-step examples right next to each other (no need to follow one when you have the other calculator). Overall, I like this textbook since it's very simplified and easy to follow for "on your own" learners.

AP Statitstics Textbook

Clear explanations and good problems. Topics, problems, tests, are all perfect for studying/teaching an AP Statistics class. This is the book I use when teaching my AP Stats class

Best math text I have ever used

This is by far the best math text I have ever used in my life. Coming into my AP Statistics course this year, I was someone who had always hated math and never done quite as well in it as in other subject areas--I thought math wasn't for me. The combination of an amazing teacher this year and this book changed all that. The real world examples used in this stats text make the entire thing completely practically applicable. It's literally changed the entire way I think and see the world around me. I'm not even halfway through the book with the class, but now I understand what Descartes meant when he said "Give me mathematics, and I can build you a world." This text has definitely changed my view on mathematics, allowing me to see that, indeed, absolutely everything is statistical and mathematical. I am now even thinking about majoring in Statistics in college. Simply an awesome, awesome text. Five stars and then some!
