Synopsis
Statistical methodology is often conceived by social scientists in a technical manner; they use it for support rather than for illumination. This two-volume set attempts to provide some partial remedy to the problems that have led to this state of affairs. Both traditional issues, such as analysis of variance and the general linear model, as well as more novel methods like exploratory data analysis, are included. The editors aim to provide an updated survey on different aspects of empirical research and data analysis, facilitate the understanding of the internal logic underlying different methods, and provide novel and broader perspectives beyond what is usually covered in traditional curricula.

The book offers an overview of methodological concerns that is wide-ranging and state-of-the-art....Strongly recommended for libraries that provide coverage of advanced topics in statistics and methodology in the social and behavioral sciences....this volume will become a classic reference source."
-CHOICE

review for Volume II:
"...chapters tend to be well written and comprehensive....well constructed and produced....strongly recommended for libraries that provide coverage of advanced topics in statistics and methodology in the social and behavioral sciences....will become a classic reference source."
-CHOICE

"...these two volumes contain a wealth of information, concisely summarized with excellent reference sections."
-Contemporary Psychology

"...the editors are to be commended for their intrepid venture. Both books include provocative material, as well as 'helper' kinds of information....I found all of the chapters to be highly informative....psychological methodologists may content themselves with Keren and Lewis's two volumes as the basis for a vibrant seminar or discussion group on methodology and statistics in the behavioral sciences."
-Psychological Science

"I can positively recommend it to anyone who is worried about the assumptions and underlying bases of the statistics used by psychologists..."
-British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology

"The two volumes present an excellent survey of research statistics and data analysis written by eminent researchers expressly to make methodological and statistical developments available to those with limited technical skills. Material is clearly presented, applications are emphasized, provisos stated, and copious references given for each topic....This is the single best available source of information on statistical methods and applications, coupled with equally useful thought-provoking criticisms ranging from technical to psychological to philosophical."
-Perceptual and Motor Skills

"We praise these volumes... Editing such volumes is without question an accomplishment....We...congratulate [the editors] for attempting the unthinkable, and doing a good job at it."
-Journal of the American Statistical Association
