This is a good text on introductory statistics that uses clear language and is easy for undergraduate students to read and understand. It goes through data analysis as it relates to research design and hypothesis testing step by step, which is a unique contribution of this book. -- Paul S. Foster I really like the idea of an integrated stats/methods text that could also be used separately. The activities in the lab manual are nicely done and would provide additional practice for the students. -- Courtney McManus A well thought-out statistics book that hits all the high points that students need without getting bogged down. -- Michael Ray
