Abstract
A small (104 pages ) but very useful book titled "An Introduction to Data Management in the Behavioral and Social Sciences" by Sheldon Blockman and Kenneth M. Goldstein (Wiley, 1971) should be brought to the attention of SIGSOC members. It includes chapters on how to punch data cards and layout questionnaires with card punching in mind, and introduction to FORMAT statements, and examples of typical statistical packages (BMD and P-STAT are singled out). I find it a useful book to recommend to people beginning to work on dessertation research projects. I could also be useful in a programming course aimed at social scientists.
