Editorial Reviews

"If you know little about SAS and desire a brief but detailed task-oriented overview of basic SAS commands, this is the book for you…this book is an excellent introduction to SAS. Many new SAS users will appreciate the wealth of SAS program files and data sets. Spencer has clearly documented every one of his programs, it is up to the diligent student to simply follow along."
Journal of Statistical Software, Vol. 11, 2004

"…beginning (and more experienced) users of SAS will still find this book very valuable as the issues it addresses are precisely those likely to be found most difficult with the language…The style of the text is concise but clear; example programs, with accompanying explanations, are included throughout the text and sets of exercises, with full solutions, are provided…it's small size and systematic coverage of the basics make it a useful brief reference book. I shall have it close to hand when using SAS in the future."
