Introduction to the Practice of Statistics w/CD-ROM Review
The book came in great condition--wrapped in plastic in a comfortably fitting cardboard box. It was as advertised: brand new, no marks or scratches, looked like it came directly from the store. Perhaps one of the highlights was the remarkable shipping. I received a tracking # and link within a day of purchase, and though I purchased the item over a week that included a holiday, it came 3-4 days earlier than expected--a pleasant surprise! I definitely recommend.

Note that _all_ (or all but one) of the 5-star reviews of "Introduction to the Practice of Statistics" are reviews of Amazon's price and delivery! The critical reviews actually attend to the content of the book.
Like most texts, this one suffers from (1) having a captive audience (students) and as a result, a publisher that does _nothing_ to really improve the book, (2) terrible design, (3) uninspired presentation of what is, at best, a dry subject, (4) as many have noted, far too few examples to illustrate the substance of the text.
Sad.
