This book will be widely used in the social sciences by those who want to inject some real data into their teaching and by those who want to use relevant examples to teach exploratory data analysis. The writing is interesting, clear and informative, and accessible to everyone, irrespective of whether they are good with numbers. Above all, this book is a good read.

Cathie Marsh s original book, published 20 years ago, had a remarkable impact on students and researchers alike, liberating them to explore data focussing on their meaning, not just the statistical significance. Jane Elliott has done an invaluable job in updating this book, taking account of developments in software and statistics.
