Statistics for Anthropology

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Anthropology students increasingly need a quantitative background, but statistics are often seen as too difficult. Statistics for Anthropology offers students of anthropology and other social sciences an easy, step-by-step route through the statistical maze. In clear, simple language, and using relevant examples and practice problems, this guide provides a solid footing in basic statistical techniques. It is designed to give students a thorough grounding in methodology, and also insight into how and when to apply the various processes. The book assumes a minimal background in mathematics, and is suitable for the computer-literate and -illiterate. Although only a hand calculator is needed, computer statistical software can be used to accompany the text. This book will be an essential resource for all anthropology and social science students seeking an introduction to basic statistics.
