Free Downloads An SPSS Companion To Political Analysis
In this much-anticipated revision of Pollock's popular SPSS workbook, students dive headfirst into actual political data and work with a software tool that prepares them for future political science research. Students learn by doing with guided examples, more than 120 screenshots, and step-bystep instructions. Compatible with all releases of SPSS (12.0 through 19.0, as well as the student version), the new fourth edition includes brand-new or completely revised exercises. Two new datasets (2008 NES and 2008 GSS) and two revised datasets (on the 50 states and on 191 countries of the world) feature an expanded number of variables to provide greater latitude for performing original analysis.

I was thrilled to get my order on time and in good shape. It is necessary for my final political science class that I need to graduate. Unfortunately, the book did not come with the necessary CD with tutorials and samples that are necessary to complete the assignments and become comfortable with the SPSS program. The description of the product did not mention that the book did not contain the CD which is truly unfortunate since I know have to buy the CD because I purchased an incomplete product.
This book was very helpful for my class but the CD thing really became a fiasco. The book should really emphasize that you need to put the CD information on a flash drive. It told me to at one point but it did not seem that important. I lost the CD somewhere on campus and had to order this book again just for the CD info. Not fun.The book was great for the class and I used it more than the textbook it accompanied.
Maybe 1 set of exercises were actually in the book that I needed for class. I would highly recommend buying the book brand new as opposed to used. I am very unsatisfied with this order and I would like something to be done about it. Why would you ever sell someone a book that does not have all the exercises that go along with it?
None of the lab pages were in here.. FOUND OUT WHEN ASSIGNED IN CLASS LAB WORK
This did not include the CD, the data found on the CD is required in order to perform the skills and exercises needed to actually use the book. I wasted my money on this.
This is a good guide into the intricacies of the statistical program, SPSS, with challenging excercises at the end of each chapter.
Was supposed to be complete with CD, but one of the labs was torn out!!! Had to copy from a classmate....did have disc though.
A lot of the pages are missing, so be aware if you were planning to scan and do your homework.
