DESCRIPTION:
This text is no exception What it covers is absolutely elegantI simply love it."- Gabor Szekely, Bowling Green State University"Throughout the book there are numerous homework problems at varying levels of difficulty. "As a textbook, it provides a solid foundation for probability and statistics with introduction to some useful applied topics."-Roger M. In my opinion they do an excellent job of testing the students' grasp of the material as well as being educational, in thesense of preparing students for examinations.- Charles Dunkl, University of Virginia . Ross is a classical author of probability texts, most of his books became Bibles of instructors and students. The explanations are absolutely clear, well chosen examples help students to understand the point of each section. Sauter, Boeing Commercial Airplane Group, in T

Awesome Content Olu It breaks down probability and statistics down in terms understandable by a layman. I strongly recommend this book for insight into the complex and yet informative subject of stats and prob!. Errors! This book has good organization of subject matter.

What baffled me was that the errors were so easy to catch and yet they existed in the THIRD edition! Unforgivable!I reckon at this rate there have to many more to be unearthed! The author definitely needs better proof-reading.. Ross may allow non-techies to dig deeper nyasb When I first took Statistics at the college level I received an Incomplete. When I cleared my incomplete, I received a D.I later transferred to a less rigorous major at a less rigorous school. The books required for my Statistics classes then were titled things like "Business Statistics". Having an easier time figuring out the bare basics of Statistics in these classes, I wish I had Ross to dig deeper into topics I now understood. Even though my first experience with Statistics was not successful I remembered Ross to be one of the best books from my old school.I think that for the person who is 1) familiar with the concepts of Pr
