The first ever book on statistics that starts by asking 'what data have you got' and 'what do you want to show' and then telling you what the solution is. It really will make working with numbers pain-free. 

Statistics books are generally all structured in the same way. They describe statistical theory and techniques, starting with the easy stuff and working towards the harder stuff. Whenever they have finished explaining a particular bit of theory or a technique, they then give an example of its application.

However, this isn't how it works in real life. You have a real business problem - to understand or to express - and you have to work out which statistical technique fits the problem. Flipping through the chapters of a statistics book, trying to find an example which fits both the data you have and the question you want to ask about the data almost always ends up in failure.

This seems analogous to the old "production-led" manufacturer-making what it knows how to make, rather than the "customer-led" manufacturer making what its customers actually want. Statistics Demystified is the antedote to this problem, a customer-led statistics book that identifies your specific problem first and then helps you solve it.
