Advance praise: 'If you, and your experiments, have been bruised by statistical misfortune, then this is the book for you. Paul Cairns' wise and pragmatic advice talks us through the practical use of statistics in Human-Computer Interaction, showing his own bruises when necessary. This should become the standard reference that the field needs.' Alan Blackwell, University of Cambridge Advance praise: 'In Human-Computer Interaction, we gather data from experiment designs that are often more complex or messy than those presented as examples in a basic textbook on statistics. Cairns presents digestible information for an interdisciplinary audience with expertise and authority. I will be buying a copy of this book for my students, and also one for myself!' Regan Mandryk, University of Saskatchewan, Canada Advance praise: 'This is a must-read for novice or well-established researchers alike, who are worried about whether they are conducting the correct statistical analyses of their data. Paul Cairns makes learning about statistics seem both fun and interesting. I'm confident that this book will positively impact the quality of future Human-Computer Interaction research.' Anna L.
