This text is designed for a two-semester introductory course in statistics for students majoring in engineering or any of the physical sciences.  Inevitably, once these students graduate and are employed, they will be involved in the collection and analysis of data and will be required to think critically about the results.  Consequently, they need to acquire knowledge of the basic concepts of data description and statistical inference and familiarity with statistical methods they are required to use on the job.

4Simple Statistics  Aug 24, 2009 By Maria Maliagros
If you are looking for a statistics book that explains things in a simple and elementary way, this book is for you! Additionally, the problems are straightforward. However, it requires that you know calculus I for some of the problems. It also has computer applications that you can practice. The only drawback is that the probability chapter is skimpy. You may want to supplement your knowledge of probability with another book, since statistics requires that you know probability first.

5Good for intuition  May 14, 2002
I think this book is very good for grasping the concepts and intuition behind the mathematical formalisms. Perhaps it should be used with another more theoretical book (Meyer, for instance). It is useful not only for engineering students.

5Excellent book  Nov 19, 2005 By David Moran
Good book to learn from if you have the required background. As both a mathematician and a meteorologist, I plan on using this book a lot!


3Just another textbook...  May 16, 2012 By Amazon_Customer_X
Just another textbook. Not great, but not horrible. Don't buy if you are just looking to learn stats on your own, but if its a required book for your class, you likely have no choice.


1Difficult to read. Chaotic at best.  Feb 19, 2012 By Underdog
This book is very hard to read. The delineation between sections is difficult to determine. Referencing is almost impossible. The samples problems are confusing and often obtuse. Many explanations are unclear as presented.
