β¦ Synopsis
Following a highly successful first edition, this book takes on a highly entertaining approach to an area normally reserved for dry, hard-to-follow books. Students benefit not only from the humorous aspects, but also from the in-depth and memorable discussions. This second edition features four new chapters on computer-intensive techniques, including MANOVA, Logistic Regression, Measuring Change and Structural Equation Modeling. This book is excellent for medical and other health professions students.
