There is a brand new book that sounds very promising and it has created
quite a buzz on this list.

Its called "SPSS Programming and Data Management: A Guide for SPSS and SAS
Users"  by SPSSX-L's own Reynald Levesque.

It is available through SPSS website, and it seems that the shipping and
handling cost is more expensive than the book itself (that was a joke).

Greetings,



I have just purchased SPSS 12.0 and am a brand new user.  Are there book
recommendations to help with understanding how SPSS functions or how to
make the program do what I want to do?  Is there an "SPSS Bible"?  Any
comments would be greatly appreciated.



Sincerely,

David
