Customer Review: I wanted to understand and explore new features in this version of Office (especially Word, esp. Track Changes) but this was far too basic: too much coverage of simple stuff, not enough on what is new in the 2007 version of Office. This book is not as useful to me as the "Missing Manual" on Vista... more info
Customer Review: The world of mathematical analysis is changing, and for the people involved, doing so at ever younger ages. As a Physics teacher, much of the mathematical modeling or problem solving strategies that come first to a student is something that I might say as a "brute force" method. While not an elegant... more info
Customer Review: This book is fine if all you want to do is basic spreadsheets. If cutting, pasting, basic formatting, or creating VERY simple formulas is all you need to do then this book is fine. However, if you are trying to do anything more complicated forget using this book. For instance, the section on... more info
Customer Review: This particular series of instructional books (meaning the "QuickSteps" series) has always been one of my favorites -- they're concisely written in short paragraphs with decent descriptive pictures to help anyone learn just about any type of software application.

Really, this is quality... more info
Customer Review: The book is OK. It is thorough in the chapter as how to implement the models in excel. That can be fun if you like to set up and solve problems. The only thing about the text is the problems in the back of each chapter. The problems would be very hard to solve, because the problems are not exactly... more info
Customer Review: I have just recieved this Book, and have yet to delve into the text, but a brief review of the functionality provided on the the CD proves the purchase is worth it. Box Plots, Stem and leaf diagrams, Dtat point labeling and Scatterplot matrix alone is worth the price of the book
Customer Review: I gave this book 5 stars, but what do I know? I just bought the book because I was feeling impulsive, and it had such a pretty cover. But I will say one thing, the cover of the book is reeeealy pretty!
Customer Review: This is a great book for people who call u with the questions like this!

Your newbie tolerance will thank you!
