A Theory of Justice: Revised Edition (Belknap)

By John Rawls
Publisher: Belknap Press,
Pages: 560, Date: 1999-09-30
ISBN-10 : 0674000773, DJVU 16.6 mb

Description:
Since it appeared in 1971, John Rawls's A Theory of Justice has become a classic. The author has now revised the original edition to clear up a number of difficulties he and others have found in the original book.

Rawls aims to express an essential part of the common core of the democratic tradition--justice as fairness--and to provide an alternative to utilitarianism, which had dominated the Anglo-Saxon tradition of political thought since the nineteenth century.

Rawls substitutes the ideal of the social contract as a more satisfactory account of the basic rights and liberties of citizens as free and equal persons. "Each person," writes Rawls, "possesses an inviolability founded on justice that even the welfare of society as a whole cannot override." Advancing the ideas of Rousseau, Kant, Emerson, and Lincoln, Rawls's theory is as powerful today as it was when first published.

Statistical Methods in Education and Psychology (3rd Edition)

By Gene V. Glass, Kenneth D. Hopkins
Publisher: Allyn & Bacon
Pages: 608, Date: 1995-08-20
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0205142125

From the uploader:
I find this to be a wonderful book for social sciences students who need to have a first look at statistical theory for quantitative experiments. In my opinion, this book well balances the rigor needed (i.e., its not a statistical cookbook, you are given at least an intuitive understanding at all times), but does not 'bother' the reader with advanced math (i.e., Laws of Large Numbers, Central Limit Theorem etc. are taken as facts and explained intuitively).

The book starts with the easy stuff, but gets quite deep, e.g., Multi-Factor ANOVA Designs (one of the few books I know of to cover mixed ANOVA design) or ANCOVA. While not completely new (last revision in 1996), I believe that most of the content is still usable for most of the experiments (under)grad students could ever dream of doing :)
