It can be made culturally more inclusive by tuning the examples.

This author is clearly not neglected the basics and no minor detail has been left out. User interface for the reviewed version of this text appears to depend on the user’s computer (Mac or PC), on which version of Excel is available, and on which format is selected for reading the book. This reviewer used the online format rather than the pdf format on a 2008 iMac, for example, because the links to data files worked with the online format but not with the pdf format.
