Title: Worthy addition to my statistics bookshelf
Product review: A reasonably sized book that delivers thoughtful explanations, as promised in the title. On average, each chapter is 15-page long, therefore it can be read while enjoying a cup of tea. And then you can go to bed satisfied that you actually finished a chapter today, and finally understood why they call it the power of a test.ANOVA seems to form the core of this book, in its various guises and usages. But my favorite chapter is the last one, which introduces the general linear model as an umbrella for most statistical concepts presented in the book. This has been a fresh take on the whole subject for me when I first read it.I take away one star because the book has no exercises for the readers to sharpen their pencils. The chapters contain some worked examples, but these are not enough for students. So you would need another book for that purpose. Also, this book is very light on probability topics.
