This book is good for a programmer entering to Web Design. The book gives illustratives examples explaining various facets of HTML and web page design. Explains the concept of table, links, frames very well. Must buy this book if you want to do web programming

This book is GREAT for self study. I orignally had bought it for a class at college. I found myself reading the book in class instead of listening to the lecture and with some practice at home I was able to learn the first four weeks of the class in only a few days. This book is a very good book for beginners. The author is very good about explaining the concepts of HTML by using one main example for each new skill being taught. He could have went a little more in depth with frames, but I have yet to find a book that explains how to make frames very easily. The author also touches a bit of javascript which was nice. Definately worth the money.

I thought that this book was very comprehensive and easy to follow. I loved the way they set up a specific case for each tutorial so that you were creating web pages as you learned the new material.

The statplus pack taht comes with the book, does a great job at solving one of excel shortcomings - not being able to add test labels to points on a scatter plot.
The book it self is too simplistic, does not go into detail on how formulas work. If you need a book to explain the formulas behind excel stats, and how to manipulate them, this is not the book.
However if you are just learning/teaching how to use the formulas for basic analysis this is great.

I was browsing through a local bookstore for a guide to Excel specially tailored for science and engineering applications. I encountered this book and found it very interesting and detailed. It is written in plain English that conveys the message very well. For readers are looking for info about using Excel for statistics (pertaining to business, economics, and social science), this is the perfect book. Yet it does not extrapolate and contain all the necesaary info on science and engineering applications. I still recommend this book for non-scientists.

This book was a lifesaver on a graduate research project I was working on. I learned a lot about statistics, Microsoft Excel, and how they both work together. (My boss thinks that I am smart now)
