Tölfræðiaðferðir í félagsvísindum, gerðar aðgengilegar öllum með áherslu á hugtökin sjálf. Statistical Methods for the Social Sciences kynnir tölfræðiaðferðir fyrir nemendum í félagsvísindagreinum. Með áherslu á hugtök og hagnýtingu gerir bókin engar kröfur um fyrri þekkingu í tölfræði og lágmarkskröfur um stærðfræðigrunn. Efnið dugar í tveggja missera námskeið.

Fimmta útgáfan notar dæmi og æfingar sem byggja á fjölbreyttum raungögnum. Í henni eru fleiri dæmi um notkun tölfræðihugbúnaðar við útreikninga, og gagnvirk smáforrit eru nýtt til að útskýra lykilhugtök á borð við úrtaksdreifingar og einfalda gagnagreiningu. Bókin heldur áfram að draga úr vægi stærðfræðinnar, sem oft verður nemendum fótakefli, án þess þó að falla í þá gryfju að setja tölfræði fram sem einfaldar uppskriftir.
