Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Conrad Carlberg (www.conradcarlberg.com) is a nationally recognized expert on quantitative analysis, and on data analysis and management applications such as Microsoft Excel, SAS and Oracle. He holds a Ph.D. in statistics from the University of Colorado and is a many-time recipient of Microsoft's Excel MVP designation.

Carlberg is a Southern California native. After college he moved to Colorado, where he worked for a succession of startups and attended graduate school. He spent two years in the Middle East, teaching computer science and dodging surly camels. After finishing graduate school, Carlberg worked at US West (a Baby Bell) in product management and at Motorola.

In 1995 he started a small consulting business which provides design and analysis services to companies that want to guide their business decisions by means of quantitative analysis - approaches that today we group under the term "analytics." He enjoys writing about those techniques and, in particular, how to carry them out using the world's most popular numeric analysis application, Microsoft Excel.

Carlberg and his wife live near San Diego with their two cats.

Decent intro, annoying writing style, worth $15

Reviewed in the United States on November 25, 2019

This book teaches you a few things:
1. Moving averages
2. How to install the Data Analysis Add-in on Excel
3. Correlation formula
4. Correlation Data Analysis
5. Charting on XY Scattercharts
6. How to make Secondary Axis on Linecharts when there's a small number in one variable on the Y axis and a large number in a second variable.
7. Exponential Smoothing
8. Adding totals or standard deivations to tables
9. Using a trendline to forecast periods into the future
10. y = mx + b
11. TREND and LINEST
12. Array LINEST
13. Minimizing the mean square error with Solver or VBA to select the right coefficients that minimize variation
14. Pivot charts
15. Pivot grouping
16. "Seasonal forecasting"

My concerns with this book are legitimate. I'd say it's worth $15.
Concerns:
1. Constantly references later chapters in the book throughout the book
2. Skips over concepts
3. Shows bad Excel images so that you can't follow along

It's a good introduction I guess but I feel like by the introduction and middle parts of the book I should already be able to forecast instead of sitting there juggling whether or not I''m forecasting or regressing or it's spring instead of summer.

The data analyst in me found this book interesting…in places. The marketing/sales executive in me tossed it. If you are a marketing/sales manager look for a forecasting book by a seasoned marketing or sales executive, not a PhD in statistics.

hard to follow

Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2022

ok information, but very scattered writing especially more advanced concepts... its annoying to read but not that complicated to figure out, but takes alot of work because of the way he writes and constantly interjecting other thoughts when talking a concept, somethings are ambiguous, try at local library first
