    I've used SPSS, but never SAS. This book is well organized and helped me to start using SAS quickly.

    5 out of 5 stars Best for learners.......2007-03-09

    A "must have" book for SAS learners. Some of the best features of the book ---well organised, easy to follow, simple examples that help to understand the material.
    A good reference book for SAS BASE and ADVANCED certification exams.

    2 out of 5 stars Poor book.......2007-03-20

    I hoped more. It is a very basic book, with elemental examples and no clear directions on the best use of SAS.

    5 out of 5 stars Great for real life applications.......2007-01-01

    Great book.. It is a great asset to my SAS library.

    2 out of 5 stars Too much unecessary detail about reading in data.......2006-11-10

    Theres just too much unecessary material in this book about ways to read in data etc. Its all unecessary cos like myself most professional analysts and statisticians have access to SAS enterprise guide, which is incredibly powerful and so much less time consuming. The programming language is only useful for algorithms these days, as most professionals havent got the time to be debugging code all day. The text covers nothing about cluster analysis either which is central to a lot of multi variate analysis.
    The mathematics and statistical detail is of far more interest and importance to us in the working environment than reading in of files.

    3 out of 5 stars Poor value.......2006-10-14

    The book can be helpful to college students, but is of little benefit to more seasoned statisticians. The title notwithstanding, most of its chapters deal with general-purpose SAS programming; the rest (totaling 100-150 pages) offer a very basic review of REG, TTEST, LOGISTIC and FACTOR procedures, something that you can easily find online. (Check out the SAS tutorials offered by UCLA). I like and recommend Ron Cody's other books, but not this overpriced softcover.

    2 out of 5 stars Blergh.......2006-09-13

    I did not like this book. The organization was abysmal, and I decided to sell it back to the college bookstore for use by future hapless students, because it is not good as a reference guide.

    I did not like how the author seemed to gear the book to an audience that is terrified of their computers or anything dealing with *gasp* math.

    If you like to travel off the beaten path, you should take this book with you. From interesting things to look for on a day hike, to ways to survive in any climate, and location this book is a must have. Hunting, gathering, shelter, fire, and first-aid. Things you must know to survive in the wilderness.

    5 out of 5 stars Second one I bought. .......2007-06-12

    I sent my first one to my mom, this is a great book for anyone interested in anything outdoors. Particularly Scouts. Some of those idiots on Survior need to read this. Damn fine man book.

    5 out of 5 stars Amazing!!!.......2007-06-09

    I had to look for a book to improve my knowledge about outdoors activities like camping, hiking and survival skills. This book is THE book to have in hand. It is very comprehensive, have a lot of details, and it's written by a guy that really had to use the methods and tips described in the book.

    Probably the book goes a lot far in survival skills for a lot of us (like surviving to an atomic accident) but no one knows when it will come handy to know what to do in those cases. Like having a water shortage in your house for a week could lead you to know some survival skills to "create" water from the elements.

    The book is well written as well as very comprehensive. I don't recommend this book to newbies because it describe a lot of techniques that require a minimum of knowledge.

    I can't wait to test my learning this summer!
    Thanks Lofty!

    4 out of 5 stars SAS .......2007-06-01

    John "Lofty" Wiseman, Ex SAS, if you ever wanted someone who knew what he was talking about, this is the man. The book is full of info for literally every point and circumbstance on the planet. It is a book that you will use, demolish while using it and you will buy another copy because you used this one too much. The only regret I have of this book (and why I give it 4 stars) is not the content but the book itself. It is not sturdy enough. The content itself is a mini library to survival around the globe. You're a serious survivalist or camper? This book should be yours.

    3 out of 5 stars Ok for the price.......2007-05-23

    This book had a lot of information that was useful in survival. Some of it takes a lot of practice in a safe setting, like a backyard, before you try to rely on it. Using the bow drill for fire making is an art and the hardest workout I ever had. There is a lot of technique on it that wasn't covered in the book that will make or break it. It makes me wonder how much other stuff I don't know is like that in this book.

    ringtone88.com t which may be of more interest (thanks to the reader for suggesting this).

    The SAS Learning Edition 4.1 is an effective learning tool for those who are just starting out with SAS and those who want to become hardcore BASE SAS programmers.

    If you are just starting out with SAS and Statistical Analysis, you will want to start with SAS Enterprise Guide (EG) -- a windows-based wizard-like front end for calculating sample statistics, creating graphs, performing ANOVA, regression, and Time-Series Analysis. The advantage to using SAS EG is that you don't have to know a lick of code to actually use SAS. The downside, of course, is that it does not teach you how to actually program in SAS. It is like using the "address book" feature on your cell phone -- you can easily call anyone you have in your adress book. However, if you actually need to recall their phone number, you won't know it because you are relying on the memory of the phone and not your own.

    SAS EG is a bit like training wheels. It will get you started. However, once you have mastered the basic analysis tools within SAS, you will want to refine them to be most appropriate with your data. For example, SAS EG relies on a certain set of defaults and often those defaults will be oriented towards the most common user applications which tend to be either social sciences or pharmaceuticals. If you are trying to analyze IT or financial data, you may need to change the defaults in order to make the analyses more appropriate for your goals.

    The great thing about SAS EG is that it allows you to view actual SAS code. You can then cut and paste that and start using the SAS Program editor to take your skill sets one step further and learn the nuts and bolts of SAS Programming. Think of the difference between SAS EG and SAS Programming as using Visual C to create a program vs actually starting with C-code and building from scratch. Again, SAS Learning Edition will allow you to make that progression.

    This progression will make a significant difference to potential employers if you are looking to enhance your resume by being able to add SAS to your list of skills. Some companies are looking for individuals who can do the basics with SAS EG. However, many employers are going to be looking for individuals who can use both EG AND SAS Programming. If you really want to separate yourself from the pack, you will take the time to learn the actual SAS Programming language. Again, it is like the difference between getting a bachelors degree and a masters. A bachelors implies you know the "what and how" to do something. However, a Masters implies you know how to do the "when" and "why" and how to extend the concepts when they don't fit the basic applications.

    Finally, the differences between SAS Learning Edition 4.1 vs 2.1 is that you are getting the most up-to-date version of the software. SAS, like any software program, continues to evolve. While the SAS programming language is pretty stable and is not changing significantly from one year to the next, the SAS EG Interface and Architecture are undergoing constant revision as user feedback is incorporated and as programming technologies continue to evolve. Since SAS Business Licenses are renewed every year, they will tend to upgrade their software version (they want to feel like they get something for their renewal fee.) It isn't like if you don't want Vista, you just don't upgrade and therefore, you don't have to look for people with Vista skills.

    Businesses will expect that people they hire have knowledge of the current release because that is what they most likely have -- once again, this is a side effect of the SAS License model. Again, this is another reason why the expiration of the 4.1 LE for 12/2008 is not a significant limitation -- by 12/2008, there will be at least one major release by SAS -- maybe 2 (SAS is planning a major release towards the end of 2007 and based on history, most likely will have another Service Pack or significant point release before the end of 2008)

    Hope this helps.

    2 out of 5 stars I don't think so.......2007-02-07

    I was a fan of 2.0, but the price of SAS Learning Edition 4.1 is just too high. I do not own this version, and do not plan to, and therefore I have based this review on published features of the product. Look elsewhere if you want to know about practical experience with SAS LE 4.1. On the plus side it comes with the book "The Little SAS Book for Enterprise Guide 4.1," and will process and display the first 1500 observations of your data, as opposed to 1000 with 2.0. On the downside, the license expires on Dec. 31, 2008, as opposed to Dec. 1, 2008 for 2.0, after which time it will apparently not be usable. All this for about twice the price of 2.0. Fine for SAS to provide a learning resource, but if they really want to provide an educational service (rather than being just another part of the problem with education) I think they should make it available at a price that is affordable to learners.

    5 out of 5 stars Excellent prep for test with programming I and II.......2007-05-14

    The most notable attribute of the SAS Prep Guide is that it contains a lot of information not included in the two programming classes that I've taken from the SAS Institute (Base Programming I and II). The classes were great, but the book adds even more material (and if it's on the test, I want to know about it!). The book is thorough, over 750 pages of material and includes about 10 questions at the end of each chapter as a test (answers and explanations in the back of the book). Also, the book doubles as a reference guide in case you're stumped and need a resource. I have not used the CDROM at all and thus have no comments in regards to it. Overall, I suggest it, especially if you can get your company to pay for it!

    ringtone88.com ut his explanations of proportional hazards and other models are the best I've found among a dozen textbooks and stats package manuals (some of which made sense only after reading Allison). What makes this book so good is that it will have you running your analyses in just hours. The examples are superb take-off points. I was not a SAS user before reading the book and therefore took a little extra time to figure out dataset manipulations and such in SAS, but that was minor effort compared to the rewards of having Allison's clearly written book as a guide. The price of this book represents only a fraction of its value.

    5 out of 5 stars Extraordinarily Clear and Useful.......2000-02-06

    I've used a number of this author's books and they all share in common lucidity, utility, and rigor. This book makes it easy to grasp complex ideas, provides comprehensible examples, gives sample SAS code so that implementing the methods is as straightforward as possible. Plus, it is clear that the author is a subtle and first-rate methodologist, who innovates in this area as well as teaches it.

    This book is well-written, well-organized, and very practical. I found it invaluable in conducting my research. My only recommendation for the author for his next edition is to include a chapter on dealing with correlated event times, like time-to-promotion and time-to-quiting in his policemen example (pg 249).

    4 out of 5 stars Good book for data restructuring algorithms.......2007-01-28

    Hi,

    There are times when you may get data sets that were entered in formats that are not compatible with the PROC you are using. In terms of teaching one how to use arrays and loops to restructure data sets, this book is a gold mine. If you analyze data from PROC SQL against databases then you probably won't need all of what is in this book. I have used this book for several consulting engagements and even if you program in SPSS, this s a great book to have in your arsenal.

    4 out of 5 stars SAS Programming.......2006-11-11

    I enjoyed the book by Cody and Pass. It is very "user-friendly" and even though it may not be as comprehensive as other comparable books on the subject, I did find it excellent. It clarified many concepts which I was not able to from anywhere else. The authors may consider adding PROC REPORT, a very important and powerful tool.

    3 out of 5 stars Ok--rather above average.......2006-10-20

    On the whole, the book is very good in that in general it consists of short self-contained programs: the input, the code, and the output, with discussion. Unfortunately, later in the book the authors got tired of the above and in many cases do not provide the output.

    Also, the authors indulge in numerous parenethetical asides that are supoosed to be humorous but are just silly and interruptive.

    Still, on balance it is a good (though outrageously overpriced) book.

    5 out of 5 stars For the Person Who Has Everything.......2006-09-23

    Not exactly one of those people but still hanging in there. This is a very good do-it-yourself book on SAS coding. But remember, it is still "do-it-yourself" so beware. You can get the job done, but it may not always be the most economical or efficient way. Otherwise this is an invaluable book. Keep it handy.

    4 out of 5 stars My first SAS book.......2004-10-20

    This book is helpful for beginner users. It was invaluable to me in learning SAS programming, with great examples of all the basic concepts and operations. It's concise and pretty well-written. (By the way, there's also a helpful "SAS Workbook" that goes along with this, written also by Cody. The Workbook has many exercises to help you get started with SAS).

    5 out of 5 stars Absolutely outstanding.......2007-05-23

    This is the single best statistics text I've ever read. It's extremely easy to follow, very practical, and gives outstanding examples. Everything is so clearly described in the book that one might call it Factor analysis and SEM for Dummies. I only wish that the book covered nonrecursive SEM models.

    5 out of 5 stars Easy to read.......2006-11-03

    Very easy to read. Examples are simple and effective. The book explains the statistical concepts as well as the SAS programming tricks. In fact, the book provides complete code - you will be able to get good amount of analysis done just by copying that code. However, you also need to buy the "The Little SAS Book" if you never used SAS before.

    5 out of 5 stars Excellent book.......2003-05-01

    This outstanding book was one of the mainstays for my Ph.D. dissertation. It explain factor analysis and SEM techniques in a clear and effective way, with an hands-on approach that guides the reader during all the data analysis and result interpretation phases.

    5 out of 5 stars Thank goodness for this book.......2002-10-21

    I really needed this for my dissertation. As a computer scientist who is using statistically-based data mining techniques in my PhD dissertation, I needed a good "Quick Course" in factor analysis. More important than just "what is factor analysis", I needed to know how to implement my ideas in SAS. This book did the trick. Now let's hope my advisors think so. :)

    5 out of 5 stars An excellent tutorial for the rusty structural modeler!.......1998-10-07

    This book does an outstanding job of taking someone that is somewhat rusty in advanced multivariate techniques and turning them into a conversant and competent modeler. Larry Hatcher uses plain English to explain what a technique may be used for, what the required SAS code is, what the output should look like, and how the output can be interpreted. I'd strongly recommend this book for anyone taking a structural equation modeling course or wishing to apply this technique in research.

    5 out of 5 stars Preety Good Book.......2007-05-07

    I have read most of the chapters of this book. I certainly advise anyone who would like to learn SAS SQL or improve her/his SAS SQL skills.

    3 out of 5 stars Why spend the money?.......2007-03-30

    I purchased this book one year ago under the influence of the high ratings here, but I didn't get chance to finish it until last week. After comparing this book with the SAS SQL manual (free online PDF file available at SAS website), I came to one question, why bother to buy this book? The book is not a copy of the SAS manual, but it is written in a strikingly similar pattern yet it provides LESS information than the SAS manual; on the contrary, the SAS manual gives you more materials, more examples, better narratives, clearer explanations than this full-of-typo book.

    4 out of 5 stars easy to read and follow; better for PROC SQL begginers.......2007-03-20

    If you are new to PROC SQL, this is the right book. It covers all the basic queries, complex queries in simple content, some troubleshooting, and a little bit of efficiency. The layout throughout the book is very easy to read and follow. All examples contain PROC SQL codes, results, appropriate explanation, as well as part of SAS LOG and comparison in some examples. This book might be a little basic to power PROC SQL users. But compared to SAS SQL procedure user's guide, it is way better to have.

    4 out of 5 stars Quick way to learn SQL.......2006-01-13

    An experienced SAS programmer, I used the many helpful examples in this book to learn a lot about PROC SQL in just a few days. (I skipped the text.) I trust the few typos and obscure passages will be cleared up in a subsequent edition. I thought the sections on normalization and integrity constraints were skimpy. The book has also been favorably reviewed in The American Statistician 2005, vol. 59, no. 4, pp. 350
