Format:Paperback
Clear, simple, thoroughly-explained and well-presented expainations and examples.
Accurately maps the sylabus and includes no confusing 'optional extras'.
Lots of well structured excercises that cover bite-sized chunks of syllabus.
Effective use of colours and naff pictures to brighten it up.
Very useful CD with all sorts of resources including answers.
HUGE improvement on previous edition (but it was awful).

Format:Paperback
All of the latest versions of the heinemann series are very good. A friendly full-colour format that makes the subject apealing to study. Unlike most other maths textbooks they have much clearer examples of solutions to problems, with descriptive explainations at each stage so you know what's going on. There are plenty of practice exercises as well. I fully recommend this book.

Format:Paperback
Packed with examples and questions, and building on each previous concept to introduce the next, this book is an excellent introduction to basic statistics. The provided CD contains a digital copy of the book (viewable through a proprietary viewing software only), and copies of the answers from the book in PDF format.
This book covers the following areas:
Measures of Location (Mean, median, mode)
Measures of Dispersion (variance, standard deviation, quartiles and percentiles)
Coding
Various graph representations of data (box plot, stem and leaf, histogram(
Probability
Correlation
Linear regression
Discrete random variables
Normal distribution
The only downside I felt is that occasionally it would have been nice to see some more of the working out in the answers rather than just the final answer, in order to help understand when I got the occasional question wrong! Nevertheless I already have the next book in the series - Edexcel AS and A Level Modular Mathematics - Statistics 2 - on my shelf ready for me to work through!

This book contains summarized information. Personally, I don't recommend this book. Because it doesn't worth buying and have many mistakes. Anyway, it's up to you.

Good, but sometimes does get you lost...
It is great for studying S1 on your own, as I am doing. Sometimes it does get you lost with the Examples, but doing all the questions do really help in your understanding on that... Read more
