Editorial Reviews
Review
"Its innovative style, real-life examples and exercises at the conclusion of chapters, should be found interesting and valuable by readers."
--Zbigniew Sorbjan, University of Oklahoma, in PAGEOPH
"The text provides a good coverage of the classical distributions of traditional statistics....Overall, the author is to be congratulated for presenting a human oriented, rather than a robot oriented, book about statistics..."
