*News*: See [Interactive Tutorials for QSS by Matt Blackwell](https://github.com/mattblackwell/qsslearnr) which builds on `qss-swirl` but significantly improves it.

Swirl Lessons for the book, ``Quantitative Social Science: An Introduction'' (QSS), published by Princeton University Press in 2017. See also the main repo, [qss](../../../qss), for other supplementary materials.
