Reviews
“Clear organization, writing, and explanations. I found that the textbook is one of the best I have read so far in terms of the clarity of explanations, particularly the difficult concepts and ideas.”
“The Essentials is one of the few actual textbooks I still use. The subject matter of research methods and statistics still requires it. This Fourth Edition of Healey’s textbook is a ‘good’ textbook because it is well written, follows a logical sequence within each chapter and from chapter to chapter, and college students learn and build a foundation before they move onto the more difficult statistics.”
