Synopsis

Interpreting Economic and Social Data is a compendium of the concepts needed to describe and analyze empirical data in the social sciences. It aims to set the record straight about the foundations of descriptive statistics and offers a revealing look behind the scenes of commonly used methods. It shows how to deal with ratios, probabilities, and index numbers, together with many topics that border on other quantitative subjects like accounting, mathematics, econometrics and geography.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Offering a deeper understanding of data and methods, this book aims to rehabilitate the descriptive function of socio-economic statistics, bridging the gap between statistical theory on one hand, and econometric and mathematical models of society on the other.
