An Introduction to Political and Social Data Analysis (With R) provides students with an accessible overview of practical data analysis while also providing a gentle introduction to R. By starting with statistics first and using just enough R code to generate results, this text helps students focus on learning how to do data analysis while slowly gaining confidence in using R as they progress through the material. This book is structured around learning by doing. Students can follow along in each chapter by reading about statistics and their applications in R, and then running the R code on their own as they work through contemporary political science and social science examples. Author Thomas M. Holbrook patiently explains each step in in the process, avoiding overly complicated jargon and commands. Exercises at the end of chapters feature both conceptual and calculation-based questions so students can check their understanding of data analysis and practice using R. At the end of the semester, students can confidently add skills in data analysis with R to their resumes.
