Written to address the particular needs of helping professions students, Rubin's comprehensive and easy-to-read new book provides a step-by-step guide to using statistics. Whether the goal is to show evaluation of clinical interventions in a small agency, or to show how different procedures can be applied across different sorts of studies within the same practice setting, myriad types of practice illustrations are given both in the narrative as well as in the chapter ending exercise, thereby lending flexibility to teaching approaches.

"This manuscript is the best tool we can use to teach MSW students statistics without overwhelming them with too much statistics and too few examples. This textbook is easy to follow, and the author explains statistics in a way (so) that even students who are most afraid of numbers will find statistics an interesting subject...I look forward to adoption the text upon publication." "When I teach statistics to my students, I often rely on chapters from multiple books to convey the material...Rubin's book, I believe, will fill a tremendous gap in terms of statistical needs for master's level students...Rubin's text provides, in one source, a comprehensive, well-written and organized guide to students through the maze of learning statistics without using 'over the top' or confusing examples..."
Rubin (University of Texas) introduces the reduction, presentation, and analysis of data for descriptive purposes, and demonstrates the value of understanding and utilizing statistics in evidence-based clinical practice. The second half of the textbook covers probability, sampling distributions, hypothesis testing, the t-test, analysis of variance,
