Handbooks and Manuals
Handbooks and manuals are two different things but often
the two words are often used interchangeably.
HANDBOOKS are summary overviews of an extremely
broad subject. They are often similar to textbooks.
http://www.lib.lsu.edu/instruction/reftools/reftools-print.html
The definition of handbook used here is leaning more toward a source
for quick and concise information on topics within the subject of the
handbook. The term handbook is used here liberally to mean sources
on the internet, whether digitized book or web resource that is
organized to provide extensive but factual information on the
topic of the site. The websites also are organized to facilitate the
information needed from that site through contents lists, sitemaps,
site search tool or an index to the site. Current reference tool
listings often ignore this format of tool in the lists by type of tool.

Electronic Statistics Textbook (Electronic Textbook StatSoft)
http://www.statsoft.com/textbook/stathome.html
This Electronic Statistics Textbook offers training in the
understanding and application of statistics.
The material was developed at the StatSoft R&D department
based on many years of teaching undergraduate and graduate
statistics courses and covers a wide variety of applications,
including laboratory research (biomedical, agricultural, etc.),
business statistics and forecasting, social science statistics and
survey research, data mining, engineering and quality control
applications, and many others.
The Electronic Textbook begins with an overview of the relevant
elementary (pivotal) concepts and continues with a more in depth
exploration of specific areas of statistics, organized by "modules,"
accessible by buttons, representing classes of analytic techniques.
A glossary of statistical terms and a list of references for further
study are included.
