Methods for Macrosociological Research (Hardcover)

Strategies of analysis for macrosociological data have long relied on questionable methodology which sacrifices information in exchange for summary measures. This practical book provides the means to handle distributions and compositional data without forfeiting the information from which they derive. Real-world data and illustrations are featured throughout the text, with a summary and bibliography at the end of each chapter.;The book is divided into three sections. Part one discusses comparative analysis of distributions, compositions, sequences or rates and other vectors. Part two studies the interdependence of the parts which together make up the whole and part three investigates the aggregative analysis of such parts in both static and dynamic terms.
