Statistics Demystified: A Self-Teaching Guide

This books introduction states that it is a high school level text. Crap to that. I am an older adult with too much time on my hands and this sucks it up for a few weeks. Tough and packed with vocabulary and problems to help understand the whole range of statistical uses and processes. Before I was pretty much limited to Mark Twains comment -"Lies, damn lies, and statistics", now I am seeing the news with a different set of perspectives. I found the book well worth the work and time I have invested in it, and a gentle introduction to a topic that has scared me off in the past.
