I used this book in a first year MBA program and found it a great resource. Stat freaks complain that Excel is not SPSS - true! But many many more business people have access to Excel, along with a reasonable ability to do FAST basic statistics.

Excel really isn't robust enough for statistical analysis, you really need something like SPSS or Statistica for proper stats. Other Excel add-ins are available but expensive for what they are. This book covers Excels statistical functions pretty well - however glosses over the above limitations!

Is this really an EXCEL based book?
3 Jun 2000
Format:Hardcover
While I used the first edition of this book (1997) with delight and great admiration, I was disappointed when I bought the second edition (1999). The main reason was that the authors had indicated in a small top right hand corner on the cover that the book uses PHSTAT as an an Excel Add In. (Not very useful for online purchases). Amazon mentioned PHSTAT in one review as an "Add In included on the CD", ie, it seemed optional. The examples solved in the 1st edition used native Excel methods. In edition 2, they were solved using PHSTAT. All screen captures, worksheets, etc, were in PHSTAT. If one does not wish to use PHSTAT, the second edition would not be useful at all. It would have been leading (Opposite of misleading) to entitle the book "Statistics for Managers Using PHSTAT, an Excel Add In". I am hence confused about the number of stars : first edition : 5 and second edition only 1.

Nothing to do with Excel or How To
10 July 2001
Format:Paperback
Don't let the title mislead you: Statistics for Managers Using Microsoft Excel (Student Solutions Manual) has almost nothing to do with Microsoft Excel. This book is useful IF and only if you are using it as a companion to the Statistics for Managers Using Microsoft Excel text book in a statistics class.
The book provides ANSWERS. It does not provide any how-to; it does not provide any Excel formulas/etc. But is does provide the answers to all of the even-numbers problems in the companion text book. That's the only reason it got as much as a "3 stars" rating from me -- it was helpful for feedback.
