AWESOME!!!

Everything in this book is explained so well. EVERYTHING! What a great job with this book! Well done. I was sweating bullets taking this class and I understand the book easier than my teacher often times. (I have a really good teacher too!) I hate math, and I am confident I will do well in this class with this book. Thank you so much Robert. You rock!

Graduate Statistics

Statistics can be a very abstract topic and Statisticians speak in a language all their own. This book was the assigned text for my graduate level statistics class. Pagano, at times, speaks an English language we all can understand and uses real-world examples for many of the topics covered in the book. Still, I would not recommend trying to understand this book or its subject matter without actually being enrolled in statistics course, but it is a very good text for statistics students, even those without strong math backgrounds, to understand.

Superb Introductory Statistics Text

Prior to the first edition of this text I used a different text in my introductory statistics course each year because students did not like my text selections. I've used Pagano's text every year since the first edition was published in 1981 because every year the students tell me to retain this text. It is superbly written and exquisitely designed. It is the best text of its kind that I have seen in the past 25 years of teaching the subject.
