Discovering Statistics Using SPSS (Introducing Statistical Methods S.) (2nd Edition)
Andy Field
I am a big fan of conversational writing style, but literally 20% or more of this book is simply the author trying to have a cute conversation. The book is written as if the audience was composed of nothing but children. Furthermore in the very first chapter the author mis defines the word 'theory'. A theory is not a guess, it is not an hypothesis. It is a model based on many facts.
Beyond that problem, an alarmingly large portion of this book is just the author rambling on with anecdotes he thinks are funny. All those anecdotes do is distract one from the statistics. I would think he could cull about 200 pages of needless drivel, and make a much more effective book.
I do not recomend this book at all.
