Preface

For many students, the thought of completing a statistics subject, or using statistics

in their research, is a major source of stress and frustration. The aim of the original

SPSS Survival Manual (published in 2000) was to provide a simple, step-by-step guide

to the process of data analysis using SPSS. Unlike other statistical titles it did not

focus on the mathematical underpinnings of the techniques, but rather on the appropriate

use of SPSS as a tool. Since the publication of the three editions of the SPSS

Survival Manual, I have received many hundreds of emails from students who have

been grateful for the helping hand (or lifeline).
