This highly practical text provides an introductory approach to statistics for students. Gauch utilizes practice problems, examples of the uses and misuses of statistics, a combination of research and statistical principles, a reduction in unnecessary formulae, and optional sections on Excel's statistical routines. The result is a book which presents researchers with simple and effective ways to grasp the fundamentals of statistics. An instructor's answer booklet is available from the author free of charge.
Author Biography: Ronald R. Gauch is Associate Professor of Public Administration at Marist College in Poughkeepsie, New York.
Presents statistical principles in a simple fashion, and develops an awareness of the abuses and misuses of statistics, combining coverage of research and statistical practices. Early chapters centered on statistics are aimed at establishing a foundation for later chapters which explore inferential statistical procedures. Later chapters deal with non-parametric, regression, and qualitative methods as well as research design and ethical issues. Emphasis is on interpretation rather than on equations. Includes an introduction to Excel. The author is affiliated with Marist College. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Statistical Methods Researcher
It looks like it's about maps, but it's really about mathematical proofs. Even though I hate to do math, I like reading about it. This one was a little too dry and technical for me, though, like reading a textbook that tries to be entertaining. The last few pages, though, when a couple of guys actually come up with a proof for this problem, was interesting. I liked reading about the various reactions to their computer-assisted proof; it's an interesting window into the early years of computers and what people thought of them before everyone had one in their homes.
