Subject: Re: Interesting links (in my opinion)
Hi Edward
EB> I am interested in buying the following books "Statistics at Square One"
EB> and "Research Methods II: Multivariate Analysis" .
These are on-line books... As a matter of fact, I don't think the
second one exists in hard copy (unless you take the time to download
every pdf file and print them, as I did).
http://www.oxfordjournals.org/tropej/online/ma.htmlThe first one, Statistics at Square One, can be viewed on line too
http://bmj.bmjjournals.com/collections/statsbk/index.shtmlUntil I bought it, I made the effort of printing to PDF every chapter
and putting all chapter together in one single file. It's quite easy
(if you have Acrobat PDF Writer installed in you computer).
A printed version (10th edition, instead of 9th edition, the one on line)
can be bought at BMJ e-store:
http://www.bmjbookshop.com/shop/product_display.asp?&SiteLanguage=ENG&productid=0727915525Once there, if you are really insterested in buying books, then take a
look also at "Statistics at Square Two" (I bought it too, quite good)
Regards,
Marta
