SPSS 16 Made Simple
Coming in July 2008!
SPSS 16 Made Simple is the latest edition of one of the most widely read textbooks in its field.
As usual, every effort has been made to maintain the friendly, practical and informal style of earlier editions. At the same time, the content has been updated to meet the reader's changing requirements. As always, each technique is presented in a realistic research context and is illustrated with screen snapshots of SPSS dialog boxes and output.
While the book has been updated and expanded to help the reader to exploit the powerful new capabilities of SPSS 16, it will still be useful to readers with earlier versions of SPSS.
