Discovering Statistics Using SPSS (Introducing Statistical Methods),   ISBN:9781847879073

Customer Rating: 

Discovering Stats is the best Stats book I have ever used! I am a Phd student, so of course I have to take a lot of Stats classes. I can not say enough about the great job Andy Field does in breaking down formulas and explaining each step of the process in a concise, to the point manner and how to use SPSS. I am never confused in reading this book and use at as my main text in replace of the class text book. Every other text I have ever had gets blown out of the water by this one. I wish I had this in undergrad.

This book will teach you how to do it but more important why you are doing it and why you should not do it. Skip all the long reviews and just buy it.

The first week of classes are over. I find the text to be helpful so far, but this is just the beginning of the semester. Kind of funny, quite wordy, but I like it so far. After all, it is a statistics book!

Customer Rating: 

Field's revision of his text, which may already be considered a classic, is outstanding and certainly the best of the SPSS-oriented texts. He certainly has mastered the art of clearly presenting complex topics. The book is an interesting read, although I personally find his frequent attempts at humor to sometimes be rather infantile and/or odd. The presentation of MANOVA and its relation to discriminant analysis is excellent, but I wish that there had been a discussion of MANCOVA. In spite of these caveats, highly recommended for advanced undergraduates and beginning graduate students.
