Response to: Not a "Nutshell" book and riddled with errors
|

We are sorry that Statistics in a Nutshell did not meet your expectations. It is meant to be a handbook for people who need an introduction to the world of statistics or who had a class years ago but need to remind themselves of what they learned. It's not a guide to research design (which is where you would expect to find information about "which test to use when"). The errors have been corrected in a reprint edition which will be available on August 5. |
"...a book worth having for anyone who must deal with numbers and statistics. The truth is we all deal with numbers and statistics in our everyday lives."

Is the second printing available? How can one distinguish between the first and second printing in a bookstore?
Thanks!

The most recent printing is the third, in July 2009. If you look on the copyright page under "Print History" it will say the month and year the book was printed.

I saw this title in a store recently and it looked useful.
If I buy the pdf version now, will it incorporate the error corrections you said would be in the Aug. 5 edition?
Thanks!
