Re: st: textbooks for a statistics course

["Walter R. Paczkowski" <dataanalytics@earthlink.net>]

Hi,

An excellent book is

Regression with Social Data: Modeling Continuous and Limited Response Variables
A. DeMaris
Wiley Interscience
2004

This has excellent explanations; some math but not 
overwhelming.  Examples are mostly sociological.
