Microsoft Excel Data Analysis and Business Modeling (Office 2021 and Microsoft 365) (Business Skills)

This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to go beyond the basics in Excel. Whether you're new to pivot tables or you've used them before but want to improve your workflow, this guide hits the mark. Bill Jelen, known as “MrExcel,” writes with clarity and practicality, and it shows that he’s taught these concepts for decades. What I liked most is how hands-on and actionable it is. It’s not a textbook filled with theory—it’s full of real-world examples and smart shortcuts that can save you hours. The sections on Power Query and dynamic arrays are especially useful, and the way he walks you through combining multiple data sources feels surprisingly manageable. The book also stays current with Microsoft 365 updates, which is great if you’re using the latest version of Excel. I appreciated the focus on building dashboards and using pivot charts for quick visual insights. This is not just for analysts—it’s useful for managers, students, or anyone who deals with data regularly. It's a tool you’ll come back to often.

This book is a fantastic resource for anyone looking to improve their Excel skills. The explanations are clear, and the step-by-step examples make even complex topics easy to understand. I really like how it focuses on real-world business situations, which makes the lessons practical and directly useful. Whether you’re new to data analysis or already experienced, this book is packed with tips and techniques that help you get the most out of Excel.

Great book, delivered on time. Unfortunately, whoever packed it at the fulfillment center neglected to pad it with paper or sealed air pillows. As a result, the front cover was damaged (creased).

Great

FYI for those that cannot find the downloads that accompany this book, after quite a bit of poking around, I figured out how to do it. First you have to go to microsoftpressstore.com (the link given in the book does not work) - navigate to the Excel and Analytics section, then click the button to register your book. You will have to create an account on the site and enter in the 13 digit ISBN from the back of the book, without dashes. Once you've done this, if you click into the link for the book in your login another screen comes up with "Download" as one of the options. If you click this all of the files are downloaded as a zip file.

A life saver for work, school and home. I love learning some new shortcuts and features within excel that go beyond basic user. This is a very useful tool if pursuing any type of data analytics class. This is the go to cheat sheet book.

I bought this as an update from an earlier edition which I used all the time. Still working my way through the new and additional content!

I received the book on time; however the book corners were bent. Place a hard back book on top to try and flatten corners out.

having worked with excel for more than 20 years, I expected most things to be already known, however this book really discovers some hidden features of excel together with handy tricks and is therefore recommended reading for anyone working with excel on a regular basis

Bello e ben strutturato

Great book of info
