Title: Readable and accessible
Product review: I require a statistics book to be something I can open somewhere in the middle, spend 30 minutes reading, and have an idea how to perform a specific type of analysis. This text fulfills my requirements, and replaces my previous favorite (Lapin) as the stat book I reach for most often. In support of one's ability to pick up reading in the middle of the book, the text is readable, the notation is pretty standard, you can usually find the definitions of the variables in any equation without looking too far back, and the examples are very helpful. Also, the book has the only section on circular statistics that I have ever found in a general statistics text. Note this is a review of the 4th edition, which I picked up used, and I don't know what changes were made in the 5th edition.
