ReviewsThe author has a wonderful way of taking complex material and presenting it to an already anxiety-filled audience in a manner that not only sets students' nerves at ease but facilitates their learning to apply the material in useful ways. This text should be required reading in all beginning-level stats classes if for no other reason than to build confidence in the students., The word statistics is often seen as a nasty word to social scientists but Salkind deals with that and makes it somewhat enjoyable for the students and an absolute joy for the instructors., There is no extraneous information in the text. It's what students need to know, presented in a way that does not intimidate.
