Review
“Donnelly's
Business Statistics book is much, much easier to understand and follow along with the lectures. The example problems are broken down for better understanding. Overall the book seems wonderful and I would love to have more books like this in all my classes.”
Richard Walker, University of Texas At San Antonio
