Statistics for the Terrified (2nd Edition)

A supplement for courses in Statistics for the social sciences, this book offers reluctant, math phobic statistics students a unique blend of humor and common sense in their brief introduction to statistics for the social sciences. Their objective is two-fold: (1) to give students an understanding of the concepts and computations of basic statistics, and (2) to train students to overcome math anxiety and avoidance responses that interfere with learning.
