'The book reads very well... Pleasantly relaxed and informal. It is well structured and full of interesting, instructional and germane verbal examples and pictorial illustrations.' - Neil Frude, Cardiff University 'Coverage is excellent... The authors obviously have a great deal of experience in teaching, and have brought this to bear... I like the way the authors describe the procedure of carrying out statistical tests. It doesn't befuddle students with mathematics.' - Jeremy Miles, York University 'The authors' style is designed to communicate very directly with the reader, and, I think, achieves this objective well.' - Lynne Duncan, University of Dundee

The second edition of this popular textbook is perfect for psychology students new to statistics or those who want to develop a better feel for handling data and the concepts behind data analysis, without the technical jargon. Using Socratic dialogues, diagrams and examples with SPSS, the emphasis is on clear explanations in everyday language.
