Revue de presse

This book is primarily an extensive bank of practice questions (with answers) serving the needs of AS/A level candidates either as a course support text or as a revision aid. It is worth emphasising straightaway that the exercises are the book's greatest strength: they are inventive, well-structured... and notably fresh - the author has resisted any urge to recycle old examination questions.
...The book is excellent on protocols for hypothesis testing, the 'big three' distributions and their mutual approximations, niggly details (such as continuity corrections, Yates, and modelling assumptions for bivariate analysis) and the summary on Data Presentation (including an inventive 'spot the errors' exercise) has gone straight into my teaching file. Overall then, a well-organised compendium of fresh bread-and-butter statistics questions which I could see as being particularly valuable in conjunction with a modular series of texts where (with zealous or resitting candidates) it is all too easy to run out of questions.
