Review:This book and Barron's SAT Biology together are what you need to do well on the SAT Biology E (I took the E one, not sure about M). I first read through the content in Barron's, then I used this book to reinforce all the concepts. I really love this book's practice tests, drills, and clear + easy to comprehend formatting, which, unfortunately, Barron's is lacking. However, the sacrifice is a little less information ... so that's why you should use Barron's with it. That's what I did, (along with... Read more

Review:Requires a unique mindset to fully grasp the beauty of this book. This is not a quick read (nor a cheap one at $18 for 156 reduced size pages) for the beach. Keep an open mind to let his propositions sneak past "the critic" of your questioning brain. Not my favorite Lightman, but then it's not every day you learn that everything you thought you understood about the universe is now turned on its head. Read more

Review:Be careful you don't throw away the cellophane wrapping around the book when you receive it, because apparently there's a valuable code on the label that is the only way you can enable the access to the online content, unless you're interested in paying an additional amount for the right. Content is identical to the hardcover textbook, but don't think about trying to enable access to online web content without that special code! Read more

Review:It is very user friendly, an abundance of information on nutrition and how your body responds to it. It has almost every food you can eat has a value for it, even fast food ones are in here. Very helpful, will be keeping and not selling back. Read more

Review:The textbook convey's the lessons well and has very good examples but sometime I get slightly lost when i see the order of the lessons. However that is because people learn at diffrent rate for some concept. This book is still very good for the individual who study's alone. Read more

Review:Good book for the most part. It explains things well, with some instances where you really need to read closely to understand what they are talking about. They give lots of example problems in this book. The examples are nice, but sometimes they don't seem to follow a logical order and they are hard to follow what the author did to get the answers. Wiley Plus is a program that goes along with the book and it is very expensive. If you need it, it is almost better to buy the book brand new wi... Read more

Review:This is a highly rated undergraduate textbook on classical mechanics. The best feature of this book is that it is written for a sophomore. It only expects students who have taken a year on general physics, and assumes the mathematical background of a typical sophomore. Since classical mechanics is the first serious course in the Physics curriculum, this book presents a very readable and logical book for the students at the right level. Other textbooks, for example Read more

Review:The book is funny and quite helpful - nice material for review purposes. BUT, its merely a supplement to formal statistics study. You must have some working knowledge of the basic concepts.
I recommend BUSINESS STATISTICS (By Ken Black). He explains the concepts quite extensively. This book coupled with the humor of the Cartoon Guide will make Statistics a little but more bearable (especially for non-math majors like me:) Read more

Review:Statistics is a hard subject in any textbook, I think Statistics for Dummies helped in advanced concepts, I would have been equally as pleased if the base concepts were dummied down just a little more. Dr. Rumsey should be commended on her ability to make a tough subject more understandable. Read more

Review:Well-written book. Clear explanations of statistical concepts and methodologies. along with explanation of how to implement in R. Useful for someone with a medium understanding of statistics and aptitude for learning programming languages, to rapidly increase their knowledge and gain practice. Read more
