Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐One of the challenges in rating a book on technical subjects is balancing the utility with the readability. I am biased towards the Dummies series because of their proven ability to find that elusive balance. This book is a bit of a platypus – not quite a stats book, and not quite an Excel book. It struggles to be good at either one. There is a lot of valuable information in the book on the Excel functions – but the discussion of the statistical theory gets in the way. Unfortunately there isn’t enough of a statistical bent to really bridge the gap. It’s understandable given that book might be double the size. However, it leaves this one wanting in both categories. I’ve got it on my desk and will be using it for some referencing. However, the alternative book for “… People That Think They Hate Statistics for Excel” is a better, but much more expensive, choice.

⭐The author does a good job of explaining theory. Not such a good job on implementation. Sometimes it seemed as if he felt it was time to end a section and kind of dropped off. I ended up going online for clarification elsewhere. The Excel examples are generally good. The Excel illustrations are hard to read-too small- and I had trouble copying numbers for examples even with my glasses even though I generally do not need them when I read and work on my computer. I have used other Excel books that offered the example spreadsheets online.

⭐This author really understands how to convey unfamiliar information. He walks you through the appropriate conceptualization, never missing a step. He explicitly sets aside more complex information, but gets back to it when you are ready for it. Besides he is very very funny. A real treat. I used to teach statistics, and I envy his crystal clear presentations.

⭐I love how the book clarifies how to use Excel’s statistical analysis tools and statistics functions. I am getting ready to return to college and this book will be an awesome adjunct to my assigned text for Statistics for Psychology.

⭐I am using Excel for basic bio stats because I have yet to learn R and this book makes the process the least painful. Very good tutorial and definitely better than trying to piece things together on the internet.

⭐Really like this book–it assumes only a modicum of familiarity with Excel and was perfect for my needs as I inherited a class in teaching elementary probability and stats and didn’t want to have the students wasting too much time inputting data, and then running dozens of tedious computations only to get the wrong answer. I had never used Excel much and was fearing a steep learning curve trying to master Excel well enough to show my students.The only thing I didn’t like about the book is that I get a. “Can’t find the server” error message when I try to get to the online supplement. That is hopefully temporary.

⭐Great for learning to use statistical formulas in excel

⭐This book was a life saver. This is for ANYONE in need of mathematics review in subjects pertinent to an MBA program or other STEM-Master’s programs. Recommend 100%.

⭐Years back I picked up a ” …. for dummies” book and found it simply stupid. A friend recommended this book to me and I am glad I bought it. It’s an excellent starter or refresher for everyone who uses Excel, needs to know the basics of statistics to use them in everyday business operations. Thank you Joe, it’s a great book!

⭐A good into to statistics, going forward I’m just going to buy these books on Kindle as it’s much much cheaper to do so .

⭐Excellent!

⭐Excel isn’t the best strategies tool out there, but if you have to use it (as I often have in the past), then this book is a good start. You’ll have a 93% chance of liking it.

⭐Geniales Buch weil es die Grundlagen der Statistik sehr pragmatisch übermittelt und diese durch sehr gute Beispiele mit Excel untermauert. Absolut top.

⭐Not found.
