The Statistics Problem Solver: A Complete Solution Guide to Any Textbook (Rea's Problem Solvers)

Rating:
Summary: life line
Review: One of the best investments anyone in a statistics course can ever make. I was lost in a graduate level statistics course and this book not only pulled me through but I finished with flying colors. These books start with the simplest problems and explain their solution each step of the way. You stop doing problems for a particular subject when the problem solver gets to a level they're not covering in class. I found the class text useless. You will not end up doing more work. Well worth the expense.

Summary: Good but not advanced
Review: The book covers most of the Statistics. The problems are very well explained and the explanation covers the theory too. The book does not cover sufficiently neither Regressions nor Anovas. Times Series and BioStatistics are covered at a high school level. BootStrap - Monte Carlo, is not even mentioned and Stratified Samples are almost not touched

Nevertheless this is a valuable book that will deepen the statistical knowledge of the reader. I would recommend it to any one that has done some intermediate statistics and wants to consolidate his knowledge. Graduate students will not be helped much from it.

I wish REA publishes a second volume with the chapters that are not covered here.

Summary: Good for undergrad courses
Review: These hefty guidebooks are what any math student needs to get through the most difficult classwork. These books walk you step by step through any imaginable problem that you could encounter in a course and do so in a way that anyone can understand. Well worth the money spent. These books have saved me many hours of hair pulling and cursing.

Summary: Good for undergrad courses
Review: This book was very helpful to me during the beggining of my graduate course of Statistics I. It does help with most of the basic stuff but it does not contains many good examples of ANOVAS, Latin Squares, Randomized Complete Block Design, Blocking and other advanced topics (It doesn't contains any exercises using Tukey, LSD, Dunnet etc). Anyway, it is still a good book and it's still a good buy.
