Fast and efficient service
I would not hesitate in recommending this Marketplace seller.

EXPENSIVE AND SOMEHOW HELPFUL
THIS BOOK IS VERY EXPENSIVE AND HAS MANY DETAILS WHICH FOR PSYCHOLOGISTS ARE IRRELEVANT. HOWEVER, I CONSIDER THAT IT IS A GOOD INTRODUCTORY BOOK FOR THOSE WHO HAVE NEVER MEET STATISTIC AGAIN. SOME POINTS ARE VERY CLEAR AND SOME TIMES YOU CAN UNDERSTAND DIFFICULT MEANINGS IN STATISTICS.

I SUGGEST THIS BOOK ONLY FOR begginers
