Well perhaps we need more specialized INTRODUCTORY Stata books out
there. Geared towards individual disciplines (biostatistics, social
sciences etc.). I am also perplexed that since the existence of Stata
there have only been a handful of intro books in the entire inhabited
earth. This is a plea to authors for more intro books with useful and
meaningful exercises.
As luck would have it, another line from my review was "The market may not
be big enough, but if it is a Statistics with Stata for the Social Science
or (perhaps more realistically) companion guides oriented toward different
disciplines might be of great interest to many teachers."
