Condition: New
Format: Paperback and hardcover
Publishers: SAGE Publications, Pearson

Three statistics texts spanning the range from a gentle first course to a rigorous methods reference. The set pairs Neil J. Salkind and Bruce B. Frey's Statistics for People Who (Think They) Hate Statistics, seventh edition, with Social Statistics for a Diverse Society, ninth edition, by Chava Frankfort-Nachmias, Anna Leon-Guerrero and Georgiann Davis, and Alan Agresti's Statistical Methods for the Social Sciences, fifth edition.

Salkind and Frey take an approachable, low-anxiety route through descriptive statistics, distributions, significance testing and the common inferential tests. Social Statistics for a Diverse Society teaches the same core methods using real social data with attention to race, class, gender and ethnicity. Agresti's text is the more formal treatment, covering regression, analysis of variance, categorical data and multivariate methods.

A sensible progression for undergraduate and graduate social science students, and a useful shelf for instructors who teach across levels.
