From Publisher:

Succeed in statistics with this easy-to-understand, often humorous, bestseller The bestselling "Statistics for People Who (Think They) Hate Statistics" is now in its Fifth Edition Continuing its hallmark use of humor, this text helps students develop an understanding of an often intimidating and difficult subject with an approach that is informative, personable, and clear. Author Neil J. Salkind takes students through various statistical procedures, beginning with correlation and graphical representation of data and ending with inferential techniques and analysis of variance. In addition, the book covers SPSS and includes reviews of more advanced techniques, such as reliability, validity, and introductory non-parametric statistics. The new Fifth Edition offers more examples than ever before, and a new "Real World Stats "feature at the end of each chapter. In addition, an Interactive eBook edition (available spring 2014) features animated figures, quick quizzes, video clips, and more. THE PRAISE CONTINUES FOR THIS BOOK "The author has a wonderful way of taking complex material and presenting it to an already anxiety-filled audience in a manner that not only sets students' nerves at ease but facilitates their learning to apply the material in useful ways. This text should be required reading in all beginning-level stats classes if for no other reason than to build confidence in the students." Christopher J. Maglio, Truman State University "There is no extraneous information in the text. It's what students need to know, presented in a way that does not intimidate." Adriana Buliga-Stoian, Mount Mercy University "The word statistics is often seen as a nasty word to social scientists but Salkind deals with that and makes it somewhat enjoyable for the students and an absolute joy for the instructors." Dr. David F. Nicholson, Ferrum College, Ferrum, VA "It is easy to follow and great for learning . . . My students absolutely love the book." Soomi Lee, University of La Verne "I truly think this is the best statistics book I have encountered." Daniel R. Block, Chicago State University
