Like most of the books in the Sage Quantitative Applications in the Social Sciences, this is clearly written and understandable. This is one of those rare statistics texts that is readable and useful. If you need to understand or use dummy variables in regression, this book will save you enormous amounts of time and frustration. Strongly recommended.

This book saved my life! It provided clear explanations and great examples of how to use and interpret regressions with dummy variables. I don't know how I would have passed without it. An extra bonus for people interested in strat--the examples deal with inequality.
