It's now in its third edition, and yes, it is a gem. If Freedman et al is _too_
much of a good thing, try Moore's _Basic Practice of Statistics_ (second
edition, Freeman Press). It's not quite as lofty as Freedman. But it is
conceptual, and takes a "data analysis" approach. It stresses EDA, checking
assumptions, and is rich with real-world statistical examples.
