“Salkind’s book is in a class by itself. It is easily the best book
of its kind that I have come across. I enthusiastically recommend it for anyone
interested in the subject, and even (and especially) for those who aren’t!”
—Russ Shafer-Landau, Professor
“I have loved statistics ever since my second undergraduate
course. Your book Statistics for People Who (Think They) Hate Statistics
has cleared up confusion and partial understandings that I have had for years.
It is a must for anyone beginning or continuing their journey in this science.
I love it, and will use it for all of the foreseeable future.”
—Ronald A. Straube
“Salkind’s examples assist with the application of key concepts and
tests. The book is easy to read due to the way information is presented—such as
the Tech Talk, Things to Remember, the Key to Difficulty Index, the various 10
lists, the icons, and the illustrations—including the cartoons. Even the title
brings laughter to students—and humor can be a great antidote to
stress!”
—Mary Beth Zeni
Assistant Professor
“I am a doctoral student and
we simply love your book.”
—Marisol Miller, PhD candidate
“Dr. Salkind, I really devoured your book, Statistics For Those Who
( think they) Hate Statistics. As I mentioned before, it really deciphers the
hieroglyphics of statistics. With lots of hard work, your book and the Grace of
God, I ended up with a 93% in the class. Thank you for your works and God
bless. Lana B. MSN, Class of '09 I hope.”
“I just wanted to thank you for writing such a great book and for
allowing people like me who are flung in at the deep end to stand a chance of
understanding the basics and allowing us to get over the great fear of
statistics! Thanks very much.”
—Joanna Paolinelli
