 rather standard statisitical info, great excel models on CD June 1, 2010
John M. Beasley (Titusville, Fl)
I have a number of statistics books, and to me, smaller the better. This is a rather standard test book, the outstanding feature is the CD full of excl and minitab models that you can modify to solve real world problems in business. I use them for marketing research. I rely upon simple statistics to find the mean, standard deviation, and co-efficient of variation CV, as the basis for a number of business models. Using the models on the CD will save you hours of work. Also, if you only do this a few times a year, this book and Cd provide a quick study to get you back up to speed. this book is in my reference library.
Contenu scolaire mais complet April 2, 2009

Pour ceux qui souhaiteraint un survol des outils statistiques courants dans le domaine de l'entreprise ce livre (qui s'adresse d'après ma lecture plutôt à un public d'étudiants) balaie très large...
N'espérez cependant pas y trouver la moindre démonstration ou des procédures hyper détaillés d'utilisation de MiniTab ou Excel (les étapes ne sont que partiellement imagées).
Mais sinon c'est un bon petit livre à avoir dans sa bibliothèque et je ne regrette absolument pas l'achat.
 oops, no CD April 12, 2010
Tom Scott (Arkansas)
I already had the book, but misplaced the CD that has the software. So I ordered a new book, but alas the CD is not included and I didn't catch that from the product description.
