"Sharon L. Lohr's Sampling: Design and Analysis brings the field of survey sampling into the real world, with true-life examples drawn from a variety of disciplines and surveys. With an emphasis on evaluating real surveys and solving real problems, this book is equal parts instructional tool and reference guide - as useful for the reader new to the subject as it is for the survey practitioner. A disk - complete with data sets and the Survey computer program - provides additional support for the numerous practical exercises, graphs, projects, and other useful features of this thoroughly modern book."--Jacket.
