Sociologists Leon-Guerrero (Pacific Lutheran U., Washington) and Frankfort-Nachmias (emeritus, U. of Wisconsin-Milwaukee) present a textbook for a course introducing students to statistics as they are used in the social sciences. Most social scientists do not actually use statistics in their work, so they emphasize reading and understanding them as much as doing them. They also demonstrate that substance and statistical techniques are related in social science research, and use prose rather than mathematics to explain the principles and techniques. Among their topics are the what and the why of statistics, measures of central tendency, the normal distribution, testing hypotheses, and regression and correlation. Revised from Social Statistics for a Diverse Society (3rd edition 2002). Annotation ©2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
