Statistics with STATA, Version 8

Stata is a powerful data analysis software. This handbook was designed to bridge the gap between textbooks and Stata's own documentation. In this intermediary role, STATISTICS WITH STATA uses easy to follow tutorials to demonstrate how to use Stata to accomplish some of the most common statistical tasks. While Stata's user documentation is over 4,000 pages, this tidy manual is just 400 pages, and introduces students and practitioners to both basic and advanced features of Stata.
