Review of 'The Cartoon Introduction to Statistics' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

Not the [b:The Cartoon Guide to Statistics|168872|The Cartoon Guide to Statistics|Larry Gonick|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1347462819s/168872.jpg|163075], but an introduction, which it handles well. In the latter chapters, it moves beyond introduction into basic inference and then throws ideas out quickly - the explanations are lacking.

I haven't read Gonick's book, but in this the artwork is rough, at times hard to tell the characters apart. They aren't integral to the main point, but... confusion is not what you want while teaching statistics.

Overall rating - okay, maybe good, not great. A 2 star rating falls within the 95% confidence range.
