Industry Reviews

From the book reviews:

"The book is carefully divided into two parts. The first part deals with modeling of statistical systems. The second part is devoted to the analysis of the respective systems. ... followed by a section that offers helpful hints and solutions to problems throughout the text, making it easier for students to deepen their understanding and confidence in their newfound knowledge. ... topics in each chapter are carefully selected and are well presented, making it a reliable reference for 'statistical physics.'" (Technometrics, Vol. 55 (2), May, 2013)
