SPSS Companion to Political Anslysis

This is a lab book, so don't buy it unless it has the CD, or if it's been written in. Now that I'm half way through the class, I can say it is helpful. The companion book does not have to go with the text book. PROFESSORS - DON'T MAKE US BUY TWO TEXT BOOKS, JUST TO USE THIS LAB BOOK. If you like a different text book better than Pollock's recommend it only. Thanks! (A former college bookstore manager who has decided it is time to get a Master's degree.)

Great book, easy to follow

Great textbook! Very easy to follow. Information is given in just the right quantity, not too repetitive to the point where it gets boring, but repetitive enough to help you remember. I have to admit that I enjoy the exercises in this book so much that I've actually worked ahead a few weeks in my data analysis class. Exercises are also very interesting and explore neat relationships.

Excellent introduction to quantitative analysis

This book takes us step by step through many useful guided examples and makes sure to stop and briefly explain concepts along the way. The topics and instructions are helpful for getting comfortable using SPSS (and many of the most commonly employed statistical tests are included in the chapters). By the end of this book, you feel confident enough to strike out and perform your own quantitative analyses. The conversational tone makes it much easier to grasp the concepts. SPSS is a good introduction to quantitative analysis, and this companion is an excellent introduction to SPSS.

SPSS Companion

This is an excellent walk-through of how to use all the basic features of SPSS, with good explanations about what the outputs mean. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a beginning and basic knowledge of how to use SPSS.

good introduction to scholary research

this is a good book for those who want to understand what it takes to write a good scholary work. the underpinings of statistics and how they are used. the only weakness is that there are times when even the most advanced student needs an teacher, why i give a four in stead of five stars. but it is still a wonderful resourced for all.
