Understanding social statistics

More about the book

"Designed to help take the fear out of the essential use of numbers in social research, this textbook introduces students to statistics as a powerful means of revealing patterns in human behaviour. The authors provide a guide to quantitative data analysis including: clear explanations of all the methods; comprehensive coverage of analytic tools; an introduction to using SPSS, the most widely used statistical analysis program; examples based on real datasets available to students on the World Wide Web; helpful chapter summaries; exercises at the end of each chapter; and a glossary of key terms." "Understanding Social Statistics is for use in courses on statistics and quantitative research across the social sciences." "Readership: academics and students across the social sciences, especially in sociology, social policy, health studies and other applied disciplines."--BOOK JACKET
