The best of the best
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This Rosenthal & Rosnow book is destined to be a classic (the 2nd ed. already is). Rarely will you encounter this level of philosophical breadth, statistical depth, and historical perspective so well unified in a single text in any field. And all of it is as clear as a glass of gin in the sun. I keep mine close by my desk and refer to it often. The next generation of behavioral science students will be lucky to start with this one and have it as a lifelong reference. E. K. Foster, PhD
Clear and Comprehensive

This book is a must-have for those in the behavioral sciences. We used it as a textbook in my psychology MA course, and even years later my classmates and I keep it within arm's reach on our bookshelves and refer to it as "Bob's red book".
Excellent and comprehensive text

This is one of the most comprehensive and clearly written textbooks for graduate level behavior science methods I have come across. I learned from this book myself and, now as a professor, I will be using it in my graduate class.
The Grand Daddy of Methods Books

This is the one that you'll keep after the class is over. You'll come across some odd methodological issue 5 years after you buy the book and it'll be in there, explained perfectly. The section on interpretation of interactions is particularly great. You can't learn more about power and meta-analysis more efficiently than by reading the relevant chapters in here. The ethics chapter is more entertaining than anything like it in any other text. I've been teaching from this book for 9 years and still get students calling saying thanks for making them buy it.
