Andy Field has written an up-to-date student-oriented textbook with the aim of making the learning of advanced
statistics and using SPSS as painless as possible. While other books either concentrate on statistical theory or
on the functions of the popular computer program SPSS, Andy Field integrates the two to provide the student with
a thorough grounding in statistics through learning to use SPSS. He provides a detailed, but highly accessible,
guide to using SPSS for more complex statistical tests. There are illustrations of dialogue boxes throughout, and
each chapter concludes with a set of exercises and descriptions.
