Possibly useful books

I have been poking around for possible stats textbooks and discovered two that might be good for user experience researchers based on the sneak peeks I got through Amazon. I ordered copies for review.

• Statistics in Plain English by Timothy C. Urdan
• Statistics Explained: A Guide for Social Science Students by Perry Hinton

But if you want to continue your online learning, I found the Social Science Statistics Blog published by Harvard's Institute for Quantitative Social Science. The blog is on the geeky side—it's from Harvard after all—but is still accessible. The posts seem to be a mix of announcements and critiques of studies and news reports containing statistical data.
