Week 1 of stats...yeah, I'm already having a WTF moment...

It's hard to grasp that you don't have to get the math. This book gives you the essentials to understand your research into categories which brings forth a systemic structure of structures. Structures are of prearranged equations that require specific bits of information to be aligned for acknowledgement of the proper equation to provide the data sets with proper value. This provides the worth of a true or false theory regarded findings from research where in this book shows how to design research configuration.

It's a new language in itself. Speaking in secret code with others in that same socio-linguistic mode, would understand.

Good Reads,
for the right hands.

A thorough book on advanced statistics. A must-have book for quantitative research.

Thick and dense, it explains concepts in details. However, the information is so dense that it is easy for readers to get lost. Reading the book by starting from the summary really helps.

A bit overwhelming for beginners, but very comprehensive as user's skill and confidence builds.
