It would be an essential text for undergraduates and postgraduates on applied research programmes. As well as demystifying statistics and analysis it clearly describes the context of research, requirements for meaningful application and research design. </p><p>The informal (and humorous) approach to the narrative is a key feature and should reassure any novice researchers. The introductory text is very well considered and emphasises the uses of the book and which sections are necessary in different circumstances.</p><p>Does a great job in guiding the reader through the wide range of applications and the examples chosen are very apt and thoughtful. Overall, I was very impressed.</p><p><strong>Dr Jerry Warr</strong></p><p><strong>ex Senior Lecturer in Research and Reader in Practice Development</strong></p><p><strong>School of Health and Social Care, Bournemouth University.</strong></p><p> </p><p>As a philosopher dealing with statistics, I was always looking for the meaning behind statistical tests - what are these numbers telling me about the world. With this text, the focus on purpose and meaning rather than formulae and calculations is refreshing and meaningful. Explanations are concise without being superficial. The text guides the reader through the analysis, step-by-step while explaining the meaning behind the numbers. Real world statistics without the anxiety!</p><p><strong>Dr David Harrison</strong></p><p><strong>Research Fellow, University College London Medical School </strong></p><p> </p><p>The book is very well written, comprehensive, explaining the world of statistics with clear, straightforward explanations, and very useful and practical screenshots. Start the book as a beginner and finish it with some advanced statistical skills. I'm an experienced statistician but I still use Cole's books from time to time. </p><p><strong>Ofra Reuven</strong></p><p><strong>statistician, statistics lecturer and data analyst </strong></p><p> </p><br>
