Ron Cody recently visited our SAS offices in Cary, NC. Perfect timing. His new book SAS® Statistics by Example just became available and is cause for much celebration.  We are big fans of Ron and his work; so are many of you in the user community. To mix things up, we thought it would be fun to get Ron's opinion about his latest book. Ron graciously agreed to participate and responded to our request by suggesting these three reasons to get excited about SAS® Statistics by Example: 

1. In one easy-to-read reference, you can see examples of how to perform many of the most common statistical tasks using SAS.

2. With SAS^® 9.2, ODS Statistical Graphics was added. This facility generates fantastic graphical output (including diagnostic plots) automatically when you run all of the standard SAS statistical procedures. 

3. You get to see a picture of my cat on the back cover!
