Comprehensible statistics text
I was very excited to come across that rare thing, a statistics text which is straightforward, easy to follow, and even entertaining, dare I say such a thing.
The book is Andy Field's 'Discovering Statistics Using SPSS for Windows',
published in London by Sage in 2000 and available from Amazon UK and Amazon USA. Field describes complex statistical concepts in a practical and approachable style and the book includes a CD ROM which can be used to work through the examples in the book using SPSS.
Well, I'm off to read about exploratory factor analysis. What an exciting life I lead.
