Applied Statistics and Probability for Engineers > Customer Review #1:
Riddled with Errors

This book has the potential to be good but Ive already uncovered about 20 mistakes during 2 weeks of extremely light use. There are numerous problems that are set up so that the answers are insane (Z > 9 problem 7-42). I think the publisher should fire whoever proofed this book. Dont waste your money, get Walpole and Myers instead for an introductory text.

Applied Statistics and Probability for Engineers > Customer Review #2:
There are so many mistakes...so many

There are quite a few unforgivable mistakes...They highlight one of the most important formulas on a page and the formula is WRONG... The answers at the end of the book are so wrong that will confuse you. The authers should proofread the book much more carefully.

Applied Statistics and Probability for Engineers > Customer Review #3:
Good for reference

This is an excellent reference work, though, as a text is is inadequate. I found that several of the answers in the back are incorrect and often the practice questions rely too much "refer to problem 8-16." The explanations are somewhat hard to follow as is the practice of placing figures some distance away from the related text. This is a Wiley book so it is over-priced, but what are you going to do?
