Book Reviews of Elementary Statistics (10th Edition) (MyStatLab Series)
Book Review: A very good choice for a text in basic statistics
Summary: 5 Stars
I regularly teach a course in basic statistics at the college level. In that capacity, I examined this book for possible adoption as the text for the course. In terms of the breadth of coverage, it is broader than most other texts. There are three chapters:
*) Nonparametric statistics
*) Statistical process control
*) Projects, procedures, perspectives
covering material not normally found in other texts. The depth of the coverage is also a little deeper than in most other texts, as a consequence the book is nearly 900 pages. Explanations of the topics are clear, diagrams are used when needed but not to excess. There are many exercises at the ends of the chapters, with solutions to the odds in an appendix.
The exercises at the end of the chapters are in several forms. They are:
*) Basic skills and concepts
*) Beyond the basics, with the subcategories
*) Review
*) Statistical literacy and critical thinking
*) Review exercises
*) Cumulative review exercises
*) Cooperative group activities
*) Technology project
*) Internet project
Each chapter starts with a basic question, some examples are:
*) Chapter 7 Estimates and sample size. Question: Does touch therapy work?
*) Chapter 8 Hypothesis testing. Question: What is the best way to go about finding a job?
There is also a statistics@work blurb at the end of each chapter. It is a one-page interview of a person who uses statistics in their job.
I was impressed with this book; there is no question in my mind that it would work very well in the statistics class that I teach. However, I am also satisfied with the book that I am using, so I will not be making the switch. While it is better than the book I am using now it is just not that much better to justify the change.
