Review of Mathematics Essential for Elementary Statistics

Abstract

Reviews the book, Mathematics Essential for Elementary Statistics by Helen M. Walker (see record 1934-03816-000 ). Students taking courses in elementary statistics have needed such a book as this one. The fact that it is a self teaching book is commendable. Each chapter is prefaced by a first test, by which the student can judge whether or not he needs to study that chapter. Further, the book is full of examples which are clear, and has practice exercises adequate both in variety and quantity for students to learn the topics being presented. The book should be useful not only for the students of elementary statistics but also in training statistical clerks. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
