"This is a book largely aimed at undergraduate college students taking statistics for the first time. While one can appreciate the author's intent to add levity to an otherwise dull subject, sometimes he crosses the line and is condescending. He sets the knowledge bar too low. The most helpful aspect of the book is that it has an easy to understand chart which helps you decide which statistical test to run in various situations."
"I am (trying to) read this book for my very last class, Analytical Methods, in my MPA program. If I can successfully slog through this book, and regurgitate enough of it to be understood at at least a B level, I will be diplomaed.I HATE this book. I hate administration. I hate statistics and taking things that are interesting and reducing them to mathematical formulas and representing them with greek and roman letters. I live in the Bay Area now and I want to be exploring this grand new place and instead I lug this dead albatross of a book around with me everywhere I go and sometimes sit down with it and fall asleep. Ugh. Why didn't I enroll in clown school?"
