9780135265260. New condition. Hard cover. 3rd ed. Language: English. Pages: 706. Sewn binding. Cloth over boards. 706 p. For an introductory course in statistics for undergraduate or graduate students in departments of sociology, political science, and psychology, geography, anthropology, journalism, and speech. 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.
