Review:

Sheshkin's handbook has been considered a standard in the field of applied statistics, and the new material in this edition makes it a very worthwhile book. ... very organized and easy to follow. ... This handbook is carefully edited, and is written in a clear, jargon-free style. ... It is a useful reference book for practicing researcher as well as students who are just learning how to analyze statistics in a variety of fields. It is recommended for academic and special libraries, even libraries that already own the first or second edition of this title.
- E-Streams, Vol. 7, No. 10, October 2004

... useful to those wanting a single-volume reference on classical hypothesis tests...
- Journal of the Royal Statistical Society, Issue 167 (4)

The volume is potentially quite useful as a resource for finding something about a lot of different methods.
-Journal of the American Statistical Association

Reviews of the Previous Editions:

...an impressive compendium ... a useful reference, particularly for researchers who use statistical methods as well as for statisticians who need a quick reminder on specific procedures and computations.
- Journal of the American Statistical Association

A reference and teaching volume with so many strengths ... certainly a book that would be used repeatedly ... with its comprehensive information, integrative discussions, and well-directed reference lists following each test ... [it] provides the researcher in behavioral and medical sciences with a wealth of information ...
-Contemporary Psychology

... a perfect guide to understanding and choosing the appropriate statistical test ... lays down clearly the basic foundation behind any statistical analyses by providing clearly the guidance to choose the right statistical method ... I strongly recommend this book for students who are taking statistics classes.
-Technometrics, May 2001

... useful to non-statisticians who want an in-depth understanding of the statistical tests that they use.
-Biometrics, Vol. 57, No. 3, September 2001

...an impressive compendium...The author has given much care to organization, notational consistency, convenience, user-friendliness, and examples in each chapter describing the tests. Consistent with the author's objectives, researchers from various applied fields who want to know about a particular statistical procedure will find this book quite useful...
