Summary: Useless
Comment: Do not buy this book with the hopes of learning statistics. A much better buy would be Statistical for the Behavioral Sciences by Frederick Gravetter and Larry Wallnau. He gives plenty of examples of researchers or writers who like one method versus another, but very few real examples of what you're doing or why? He does show a very broad knowledge of the origins of statistics, but who's really interested unless you plan on writing a paper on statistics. If you want to understand and learn statistics, buy another book. I am a student and I've seen good and bad. This is the first review I've written, but I felt compelled. The textbook is unnecessarily wordy. He takes 3 paragraphs to say something that could have been clearer in a sentence. This guy even spends a great deal of time on formulas, he admits we're not using anymore. Then why include them in the text. If you purchase this one, be sure to buy another one to supplement it. Unless you already have a pretty good foundation. This textbook is a lot of knowledgeable jargon. The two good things about the text: 1) He includes information about statistical software - a lot of statistic books ignore them. 2)It's not the only statistics book we have to choose from.

Summary: The King of Statistics Books
Comment: This is the very best book on statistics I've ever seen. Whether you're in Psychology or not, you'll love the clear explanations with practical examples. There's plenty of math for those who want to gain a deep understanding of the subject, but this book is suitable for anyone wishing to finally understand statistics.
