I made the mistake of procrastinating for a test. One workable approach is the building block approach: DON'T PANIC; just break a complex task, such as studying statistics, into achievable chunks or steps. Krieger's book is an excellent first step, except for two minor mistakes in the book; they are not serious problems for the alert reader-student. The first minor mistake is a reversal of computation numbers, and the second minor mistake is a reference to the wrong table or chart. With many other publications, I might ask: doesn't the author-editor care enough to proofread and edit? In fact, finding the mistakes is an excellent exercise in acute observation for the future statistician-scientist. As an objective reader-student, I agree: Melanie's book is a logical, well organized, clearly written book. Five stars.
