Reviews / Votes
"This book is a typical Kogan Page publication, with a clear, spacious layout and a font size that aids reference and easier reading... It doesn't overdo the thorny area of statistics, but covers it competently with a good summary for those who shy away from the subject." Training JournalMore details
