you'll probably need to keep another stats book on-hand because this leaves out a lot of material. The majority of distributions other than the main 4 are excluded with no mention. Not too many examples, but there are a lot of problems at the end of each chapter (no answers, unless you buy the solutions manual, but that doesn't have very many and the work shown is very minimal).
It doesn't explain how it comes to its conclusions, it just gives the final answer. No help for me.
Remember that the international student edition and the standard student manual are different in the organization of the numbered problems.
This manual has the solutions for all of the marked problems in the book. They are mostly done using MINITAB, so if you use a different program you may get slightly different answers. Overall, it is helpul for checking your solutions to the practice problems.
The manual is ok if you already have the basics of statistics. Some things are not as thouroughy explained, but it's good enough. Does not have the answers to all problems, only selected ones.
