Wonderful statistics book April 26, 2008 J. Mackay 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I love this book. It covers everything from the most basic t-tests and ANOVAs to factor analysis. It tells you the basics of what the test is meant to do, what sort of data is appropriate for it and it tells you how to actually run and read the test in SPSS.
It isn't the best book for someone who wants a detailed explaination of how to calculate a statistical test by hand and it doesn't give extensive detail on the assummptions required for each test. Nonetheless, it's a great quick reference book, particularly if you've already had a statistics course and you just need a refresher. Graduate students will find it useful.
A super useful book for me! March 29, 2008 Yan-liang, Ko (USA) When I study my MBA classes, this book helps me a lot. The book provides essential review of all Statistic knowledge in the beginning of each chaper, and then lead readers use SPSS step by step.
Especially the practical examples and funny illustration, I will say the book is the only one interesting and powerful Statistic book I can find. I highly recommand it for readers work for Marketing, Medical , Engineering , Finance, and MBA classes. The book can lead you to resolve many "real" problems.
EXCELLENT BOOK March 27, 2008 Carmen T. Landron (Bayamon, PR, USA) The book is excellent in all ways: easy to read, fun to read, easy to understand.
A necessary Evil of Graduate School March 3, 2008 R. S. Luper (DFW, Texas USA) No one likes statistics.... well some do, but it's a necessary evil of the program I'm in. As much as I dislike stats, this book made the computer portion of it much easier to understand and left me feeling better about my abilities in the subject.The Power of Inner Guidance: Seven Steps to Tune In and Turn On
Great SPSS Book December 19, 2007 L. Wright (Columbia, SC) If you have an introductory SPSS based class, this is a must buy. I had a Marketing Research class this past semester and the book that came with the class was difficult to understand. This book saved my grade. It explains statistics and SPSS in very basic terminology - so that even someone as naive as me could understand it.
