Relating Statistics and Experimental Design : An Introduction (Quantitative Applications in the Social Sciences) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this book with high expectations becasue of the very focused title. But the book turned out to be really disappointing. It is written like an academic article - theory and more theory. It is not an easy read, it does not engage the reader and it lacks good examples. Finally, the book is kept short at the expense of elaborate explanation of many a experimental design.
The book was so poorly written and clumsy that I returned it to Amazon with a couple of days. I do not recommend this book. There are many other good experiemental design books out there in the market. The one written by Jamec C. Goodwin is a much better alternative.
Bottom line - Pass this title and avoid the disappointment.

This handy guide gives the novice researcher a clear description of the standard tools of the trade. Unlike some texts which focus on either design or statistics, this book covers the fundamentals of design, together with experiments and observational methods. There is an exposition of major tests of significance with formulas plus easy verbal interpretations, and "boxes" embedded in the text contain prototypic applications.
