Rating:  - An okay book for Excel
Not the best book I've read for data analysis, I bought it by accident when I actually wanted to buy another one. It's okay when you're a intermediate level user. I'm not an advance user, but I knew most of the things in the book, so it didn't help me that much in terms of learning new tips.

Rating: - A good reference, but not for "anybody"; allow me to explain
First of all I have to confess that this book was acquired under the conditions that I probably know 90% of the materials covered in the book. Thus my interest is in the 10% I am not aware of and the other 10% if there are alternative ways to solve problems better than I am doing now.
In this regards, I am satisfied. However if you are looking for learning simple "how-to"s like conditional formula, creating a chart, you would be disappointed since this book covers too much depth for ... Read More
