Book Reviews : Data Analysis, An Introduction, by Michael S. Lewis-Beck, Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage Publications, 1995, 75 pagesNorth Carolina Cooperative Extension Service, North Carolina State University, Raleigh, NC 276951 Books applicable to the broad field ofprogram evaluation are reviewed. Books may be reviewed singly or in groups to illuminate similarities and differences in intent, philosophy, and usefulness. Persons with suggestions of books to be reviewed, or those who wish to submit a review, should contact Perry Sailor (Department of Psychology, Utah State University, Logan, UT 84322-2810; phone: 801-797-0090 or e-mail: perrys@cpd2.usu.edu). In general, a review of an individual book should not exceed four double-spaced typewritten pages; groups of books may require additional lengths. In the past, EP policy has been to commission a single review for each book. That will continue to be the practice for most books, but in the future, two reviews will be commissioned for books judged by the Editor and/or Book Review Editor to be major works in evaluation. Such major evaluation books would include evaluation texts, edited books of evaluation readings, or other books dedicated solely to extending evaluation theory or practice. Conversely, books that focus on methods or techniques shared by evaluation and other disciplines or professions (e.g., statistics; measurement; observation methods) will receive a single review.
