Grabbed this textbook for my course BUS 202: Introduction to Business Statistics and got it discounted which was sweet. Shipping took like 3 days and the book feels pretty solid. I’ve only looked at a few chapters but the explanations seem clear and it’s actually easy to follow for a stats book. Nice bonus that it’s Canadian!

Needed a book for my Bachelor of Science in Business Analytics studies and got this one at a sweet discounted price which made it even better. Looks pretty sturdy and the Canadian focus helps with examples that actually match what we deal with here. Haven't cracked open every chapter but the stuff I checked is easy to read and not too confusing unlike other stats texts I tried before. It came fairly quickly so no complaints there. Feels like it’ll help a lot with coursework and some review too. Good buy for anyone in business-related studies imo.

Very few textbooks manage to strike the right balance between theory and practice, and this one comes close. The step-by-step approaches in the chapters are quite useful, though a little more depth in some sections would have been ideal. Still, a fantastic resource for the basics. With my subscription, I got a good discount, which sweetened the deal. Even though it took a bit longer to arrive, I'm quite satisfied with this book.

The examples in the book really helped me understand some of the tougher statistical concepts. I was particularly impressed with how the exercises at the end of each chapter reinforced the material. Although the book could use more visuals, it's definitely one of the better statistics books I've come across in my course. Delivery was prompt and well-packaged, no issues there.
