Freshing up your methodological knowledge

This book can be considered to fresh up your methodological knowledge obtained in college/university. It is not so much a how to use SPSS as a statistics and methodological book. You might consider this book for that basic kind of approach. I found it useful, only as 'add' to the nessesary other SPSS books. You need to get 'a crash course in SPSS for Windows' or better: 'SPSS for windows: step by step'.
