Easy Statistics

I've just discovered a book, which may be valuable for improving one's "Turf" analysis; it's called, "Chances Are The Only Statistics Book You'll Ever Need", written by Steve Slavin. This small book covers many aspects of statistics simply and quickly for us "laymen", those not immersed in statistical analysis. Give it a try, you might find a nugget or two.
