So I bought all the SPSS books I could find This book is the one I used Everything I needed to know and be able to was clearly explained The accompanying online database served as an example, showing me how to enter data This book will not go on my bookshelf; it will remain on my desk through my dissertation and afterwards.’ STUDENT, USA ‘This book is exactly what it claims to be— a “survival manual” It contains step by step instructions and clear explanations of how to use SPSS, how to interpret the results, and selecting appropriate tests This isn’t a statistics primer or a text on research design This is a book for those who haven’t had five stats courses and years of using SPSS If you need help using SPSS to evaluate research data— get this book A lifesaver!’ STUDENT, USA ‘I like it very much and I find it very usefel.’ SOCIOLOGY STUDENT, CZECH REPUBLIC 0905-prelims.QX5 7/12/04 4:30 PM Page iii Bookhouse SPSS SURVIVAL MANUAL A step by step guide to data analysis using
