Review

Do you teach evaluation, research methods, or statistics, or need to teach some key concepts to evaluation stakeholders? Are you in grad school and just learning social science research methods? This handy guide is a great resource for instructors and students alike, as it offers both definitions and relevant, understandable examples. Are you a visual learner? The book also features dozens of easy-to-interpret charts, tables, graphs, and figures. (Sheila B. Robinson)

It is a very useful book both for statisticians, scientists and other professionals, as well as for students and people who use statistics from time to time only. One of its major advantages is that it is written in an understandable language without many formulas. I marked it with 4 stars only because of the price: in my view it is too expensive for a Kindle edition.

The book is filled with information that is easy to read and understand. This dictionary is what I would recommend for beginners in statistics to help them understand and learn the jargon.

Me parece una excelente herramienta para mis estudiantes de Doctorado y de maestría. Es imprescindible para los cursos de Estadística descriptiva, inferencial y Multivariada.
