Book Overview:
This is the best statistics text I have come across in 7 years of teaching on undergraduate sport degrees. Students have always struggled to see the application of statistics to their degree ... Statistics for Sports and Exercise Science eliminates this problem, - Dr Mick Wilkinson, Department of Sport Sciences, Northumbria University
Easily the best book in the area, specific material for sport students. - Dr Rodney Kennedy, School of Sport Studies, University of Ulster
I really like the Newell book and will definitely be recommending it to the students on my two research methods modules... The information in the book is first class. - Dr Adrian W Midgley, Department of Sport, Health and Exercise Science, University of Hull
Incredibly easy to read, full of real-life examples, and very much appropriate for Sports Science students. - Dr Kate Reed, Department of Biological Sciences, University of Essex
