Useful book with shortcomings
When studying about linear models, this book is a very good resource. The very title gives one a sense of this book's target audience: _Applied_ Linear Statistical Models. Throughout its 1400 some odd pages examples and applications are sprinkled, neatly illustrating concepts relevant to the section. One problem: the end-of-chapter exercises. All of the data for use in these exercises are contained on a diskette. Fine. What happens if one were to lose this disk? Better make friends quick in order to have someone from whom to copy the data. Hypothetically, you've gone the entire semester without losing the disk. Datasets are reused throughout the book, yet explanations are only given the first time the data are used. When reusing the data one has to turn to the section where it was first used and decipher the book's difficult labelling system. The exercises do just that, and well, yet they take much more time than if their organisation were better.

Save Your Money.
Save Your Money. Spend your money on more usefull things like paying all those parking tickes your have received thus far. This student solutions manual has the soulutions to some and I repeat some of the many problems in the text. Having mear soulutions to problems is not enough depth to place in a manual of solutions. Most solutions manuals work out the problem to show where the answer came from, not this one. Similar Products
