Users of statistics in their professional lives along with statistics students will welcome the CRC Standard Probability and Statistics Tables and Formulae, a concise, easy-to-use reference for basic statistics and probability. It contains all of the standardized statistical tables and formulae typically needed plus material on basic statistics topics, such as probability theory and distributions, regression, analysis of variance, nonparametric statistics, and statistical quality control. With this handy reference, readers can shift their focus from rote learning and memorization to the concepts they need to use statistics efficiently and effectively. Review: Great book but ... - This is a great book covering all the details about statistics but you may wish to consider purchasing CRC Standard Mathematical Tables and Formulae instead. It covers most of the contents of the stats book for a few dollars more. Review: Good Complement to Statistics Texts - This reference is a good complement to a collection of standard statistics texts. Often, those texts have good explanations of their concepts. But then provide only limited tables of commonly encountered distributions. Part of this may be that to those authors, such tables let them add relatively little value. To an author, her value is in her origina musings, and not necessarily in filling the latter part of her book with reams of tables. Thus, there is a natural inclination of statistics authors to only provide a modicum of tables. The barest minimum! Well, your answer to this might be to amass several texts, so that hopefully, the tables you need can be found in one of these. An alternative is to get this book. Not a text, but a reference manual. Though the editors thoughtfully precede the tables with brief explanations of their usage and some cogent examples. You will find here the most commonly needed distributions in an easy to find and use format.
