AUSTIN, TX, September 29, 2010 (Press-News.org) Statistical Analysis of Employment Data in Discrimination Lawsuits and EEO Audits provides human resource professionals, attorneys and Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) officials with a more in depth understanding of the statistical methodologies used in employment analyses. This latest publication by economist Dr. Dwight Steward provides a non-mathematical approach to the conceptual framework underlying employment data analyses and explores how these analyses play a pivotal role in both avoiding and settling employment disputes. The text is based on tried-and-true statistical principles, current labor and employment research and the author's professional experiences as a researcher, teacher and expert witness.
Statistical Analysis of Employment Data in Discrimination Lawsuits and EEO Audits is currently available for purchase through Amazon.com and Barnes&Noble.com for $197.50. Chapter previews and additional reviews are available on the website, http://www.employmentstatisticsbook.com.
Reviews: Tony Rosenstein, a partner at Baker Botts, called Dr. Steward's book "The most down-to-earth statistical text [he has] encountered." David B. Ritter, a partner at Neal Gerber, described the book as "[A]n essential component for every employment lawyer's toolkit." Professionals in the educational sector also eagerly anticipated the release of Dr. Steward's book. George Neumann, a professor at the University of Iowa, commented "Dr. Steward has done a pretty miraculous thing: In clear, carefully written English he has laid out the path that employment specialists have to walk to get through litigation and audits, and he has done it in a language that both groups can understand."
