Statistics was the bane of my existence while I was in college. It was required for my chosen degree, but I absolutely abhorred it. This book helps to break concepts down in a way that is (somewhat) easier to understand. If you are struggling with statistics, then this is definitely the book for you.

A concise and accessible introduction to statistics, a subject that has intimidated me ever since I nearly failed it in college. I especially liked the abundance of real-world examples and how clearly everything was defined, including formulas which are usually my least favorite to learn. Statistics still bores and puts me to sleep sometimes, but less so than before and I no longer fear it as I once did!

This is a very solid introduction to statistics. The book focuses as much on interpreting statistics presented by others (researchers, news media, salespeople, etc.) as it does on introducing the reader to conducting their own basic statistical research.

There is only one thing I can't agree with Deborah Rumsey on: this book is either not for dummies or only one for extremely intelligent dummies. I had to skip several chapters because I was just too stupid to understand them. But the little I did grasp was completely worth the effort.
