A Visual Guide to Stata Graphics, Third Edition has been updated to take advantage of Stata 12’s latest features, including margins plots and contour plots, yet still maintains its in-depth coverage of the Stata graph command and Stata Graph Editor, as well as tricks for producing graphical effects and creating custom graphs.

Using Stata for Quantitative Analysis by Kyle C. Longest, provides an excellent introduction to Stata for users who have never used statistical analysis software before. This book can be used as a supplemental textbook in both undergraduate and graduate social science courses on statistical methods to help students learn how to use Stata. Practitioners needing to learn Stata quickly will also find this book worthwhile.

Stata Structural Equation Modeling Reference Manual
Stata added structural equation modeling (SEM) in release 12, and this manual explains all the new features. This manual differs from the other reference manuals in that it contains 60 pages of introductory material written in textbook rather than manual style, and it includes another 110 pages containing 26 fully worked examples.

Flexible Parametric Survival Analysis Using Stata: Beyond the Cox Model, by Patrick Royston and Paul C. Lambert, is concerned with obtaining a compromise between Cox and parametric models that retains the desired features of both types of models. The book is aimed at researchers who are familiar with the basic concepts of survival analysis and with the stcox and streg commands in Stata. This book is written for Stata 12, but is fully compatible with Stata 11 as well.
