Book Reviews of Statistical Analysis with Excel For Dummies
Book Review: An excellent resource
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an excellent resource for those who need to do statistical analysis, but who don't want to (or can't afford) to hire it professionally done.
Excel has many sophisticated statistical analysis tools built in. The author explains how to access these capabilities, how to decide which of them to use, and how to use them correctly. In addition, there is a great deal of information on designing graphs to display the results of the analysis.
In addition, the author introduces each statistical function by explaining what the function does, how it does it, and why one might consider using it. The examples are brief, but that's because the book isn't intended to be a comprehensive introduction to statistics. (One excellent book for that is "Statistics for Dummies," by Deborah Rumsey.)
As is the case with most of the "for Dummies" books, this one divides the information into short, easily digestible bites. The writing style is somewhat breezy, but that never interferes with the utility of the book.
This is an excellent, short reference that is worth every penny. I'm very happy I bought it, and I'd do it again.
