I have been teaching intoductory statistics for Social Sciences for over 15 years. This is the book I would have written! It is comprehensive for an intro text and combines the SPSS along with the hand calculation method. My students really do like this book (even though most will not go as far as admitting that they like statistics!) They say it is easy to understand and they really like the screen shots for the SPSS work. Because I teach across the social sciences I needed a textbook with diverse examples and this one has great examples that interest students without being corny or too easy! I highly recommend this book to beginning stat students if their instructor has chosen a more difficult book! It is also a great reference text for those students a few years past their stat course (funny how fast this info leaves the brain!). If you are a new instructor of statistics this is a great book to start with and if you have been teaching as long as I have it is a great book to finally have! Kudos to Dr. Wilson & PrenHall!
