This revised edition guides users of SPSS for Windows 95 and, like its predecessor, helps teach students how to `do' social science, by showing how compelling social issues can be explored by analyzing social data. The book is written specifically for beginning research students and is accompanied by a data disk. It stresses active learning, as students are guided step-by-step through the exercises. No previous experience with computers, Windows, SPSS, statistics, or social research is required. An Instructor's Manual is available to lecturers who adopt the book, and request it on their institution's letterhead.
