Edition of Book

I got the wrong edition of this book. I needed the 4th edition but the 3rd edition was sent to me. Can I have it exchange for the 4th edition. I would really be greateful.

Thanks

Great desk reference! Great text!

I bought this text to refresh my quantitative skills after many years of qualitative research. The book is easy to follow, and teaches statistical methods in a way that focuses on application skills, rather than seeming like a math text. I love that it provides basic commands for methods in SAS and SPSS. Easy and concise enough for undergraduates to follow, but makes a great desk reference for seasoned social scientists.

Written especially for undergraduate students taking their first course in social statistics, this highly accessible bestselling text has been thoroughly revised and updated with the latest General Social Survey data. This new 4th Edition maintains the same informal, conversational writing style along with the many pedagogical features have led to the previous editions' widespread success. It also introduces new social issues, including more analysis of cultural diversity. The text includes resources designed to support effective teaching: illustrations showing how statistical concepts are used to interpret social issues, guides for reading and interpreting the research literature, SPSS demonstrations, and a rich variety of exercises. In this 4th Edition, the authors have introduced a strong global perspective by using real-life examples from the International Social Survey Programme that help expand the students? analytical focus beyond the United States.
