ONE POINT TO CORRECT
Please clarify that "Schaum's Statistics, 6th Edition" by Spiegel/Stephens is not a newer edition of "Schaum's Probability & Statistics, 4th Edition" by Spiegel/Schiller/Srinivasan. The Prob/Stat book is heavily Mathematical and laced with Calculus and contains a formidable final chapter on Bayesian Methods. The Stat book is free of Calculus and presents results of Statistical software as solutions for several problems in the book.I have waited at least seven years for a 5th Edition of "Schaum's Probability & Statistics", hopefully with a great increase in worked problems and a careful examination for errors. We are all at the mercy of Schaum's as to the future existence of "Schaum's Prob/Stat, 5th Ed".I would also instantly buy "Schaum's 3000 Solved Problems in Probability & Statistics" (in the style of the Schaum's Problem Solvers that began to appear around 1988) if such a work ever came to be.

This is a reality check for those who know some math.. but not a huge amount
Okay, so you have seen books to be or profess to be a book on statistics but this handy book shows a relationship and link to probability. As an outline it has loads of new concepts, but does not require a lot of math to becoming accomplished in practice. In short, it is concise, to the topic at hand, and gives you the necessary steps to compute statistical or probability outputs.

Strong Buy
I needed help with probabilities and statistics for a certification and didn't know where to turn. A professor from Ohio University recommended Schaum's Outlines. The problem sets and solutions are very helpful as a supplement to other texts. It is too condensed to be a stand alone item.

I don't know anything about Statistics and didn't read the book. It was bought as a gift for someone in Ugandawho is learning statistics in high school. An engineer friend suggested I mail this book to the student.

Just buy it!
Worth every penny. The book walks your through the types of problems you are bound to see in undergraduate/ or even graduate level Stat classes in a simple concise manner. It provides just enough theory.

Don't be mislead
I've been using Schaum's outlines off and on for 40 years: they're good. I was intrigued to see them being sold with "+ videos" sprawled on the cover. But try to find the videos: no links or references in the Kindle book, nothing on the publisher's web site, nothing meaningful returned in a Google search. Sad.
