Reviews

Ian Walker makes the basic topics in statistics accessible, providing interesting examples and explanations. A great A-level text or as a supplement for those Undergraduate students who feel less confident taking a statistics course for the first time . - Sarah Bayless, Lecturer in Psychology, University of Winchester I was unsure about studying psychology, but reading Research Methods and Statistics by Ian Walker put all these worries behind me. It is really well written and very readable - all I can say is 'wow, amazing!' - Jack Herbert, First Year Psychology student, University of Derby
