SAGE are delighted to announce the publication of: Using SPSS Syntax -
A Beginner's Guide, by Jacqueline Collier

This book covers all aspects of data management from data entry
through to data analysis, including managing the errors and the error
messages created by SPSS. Syntax commands are clearly explained and
the value of syntax is demonstrated through examples. It also supports
the use of SPSS syntax alongside the usual button and menu-driven
graphical interface (GIF) using the two methods together, in a
complementary way. The book is written in such a way as to enable you
to pick and choose how much you rely on one method over the other,
encouraging you to use them side-by-side, with a gradual increase in
use of syntax as your knowledge, skills and confidence develop.
