Due to the size of the issue, it has a different kind of format but - please
note - this is ONLY for this issue. Issue 79 will go back to the normal -
i.e. cheaper - 80 page stapled version that we all know and love...
Incidently, I should point out that Radical Statistics is produced three
times a year and is available from Radical Statistics, c/o 3 Hazelhurst
Road, Heaton, Bradford, BD9 6BJ. Annual rates are very reasonable indeed: £3
(unwaged), £5 (low-waged), £12 (waged and overseas) and £20 (institutions).
