About the book

"Assuming no prior knowledge of statistics, these authors combine their varied backgrounds - one a statistician, the other a social scientist - to introduce statistical methods with a high degree of statistical accuracy and a wealth of examples that are interesting and relevant to social scientists. The Third Edition has been both updated and improved to integrate real-world data into examples and exercises and make coverage more accessible throughout the text". --Publisher.
