A Good Plus Ex-University library hardback book with a few stamps & labels = Labels and a stamp on the front endpapers. Stamp to the page fore-edges, and a 'withdrawn' stamp at the foot of the reverse of the title page. NO other library marks that I can see. Entirely unworn internally, may be unread. In the original publisher's glossy lettered laminated boards. Spine sunned/faded. (xxiii) + (1) + 353 pages. " Prove It with Figures displays some of the tools of the social and statistical sciences that have been applied to the proof of facts in the courtroom and to the study of questions of legal importance. It explains how researchers can extract the most valuable and reliable data that can conveniently be made available and how these efforts sometimes go awry. In the tradition of Zeisel's 'Say It with Figures', a standard in the field of social statistics since 1947, it clarifies, in non-technical language, some of the basic problems common to all efforts to discern cause-and-effect relationships. Designed as a textbook for law students who seek an appreciation of the power and limits of empirical methods, the work is also a useful reference for lawyers, policymakers, and members of the public who would like to improve their critical understanding of the statistics presented to them. The many case histories include analyses of the death penalty, jury selection, employment discrimination, mass torts, and DNA profiling. ".
