Title: Good book for a stats idiot like me...
Review: If you were like me and couldn't tell correlation from constipation this is a great book. It provided an excellent foundation of knowledge in which I could learn some of the more advanced topics. Like a lot of doctoral candidates I was faced with the notion of having to perform some pretty scary statistics to test a number of null hypotheses...AND...like a lot of doctoral candidates, I hadn't taken a stats class in a number of years. In desperation I picked up the Bartz book and felt the wonderful sensation of the scales falling from my eyes. Listen, I'm no stats expert but this book explains many necessary concepts in an understandable manner. No, I'll probably never be able to prove string theory with my stats knowledge but I know enough to get by.
