Rating: 5
Summary: Dummy-Proof!
Comment: If you want to go from a stupid to savvy about statistics, this is the book for you. No jargon, no obtuse references, just simple explanations and directions. I secretly credit this book with getting me through my Ph.D. Also,Darren George's willingness to answer questions and offer help via e-mail was invaluable. This book makes things so clear, that I am now able to explain statistics to others -- something that once would have seemed as likely as inventing a calorie-free shake. A must for any researcher in the social sciences.

Summary: A comment from the Author
Comment: Paul Mallery (my co-author) and I have gone to excruciating efforts, particularly on the first 16 chapters of this book, to create a tool that makes SPSS absolutely clear to the beginner. In the final 12 chapters our book explores more complex statistical procedures (log-linear models, factor analysis, discriminant analysis, multi-dimensional scaling, and others) in the identical format as the earlier chapters.
The comments by the individuals from Iowa and Minnesota reflect the many e-mails we have received on this book from, literally, all over the world. While we routinely recommend that anyone who uses the book first take a course in statistics, for anyone with reasonable math aptitude, the first 16 chapters should be understandable without ANY statistical background. If you are looking for a book that is comprehensive yet ultimately understandable for fundamental statistical procedures (data entry, data manipulation, frequencies, descriptives, chi-squares, t-tests, correlations, ANOVAs, simple linear and multiple regression analysis, graphs) but includes excellent coverage on the more advanced procedures we suggest that this book was made for you.
We, the authors, welcome your comments. These are considered carefully as we create new editions of the book.
