Industry Reviews

From the reviews:

"This book claims to concentrate 'on the most important topics' (of Statistics) and explain those 'as deeply as space has allowed'. ... in general, the book is quite easy to read, and the cross-references are useful. ... In all, it is a useful reference that should be found in many academic and corporate libraries." (Kimmo Vehkalahti, International Statistical Review, Vol. 76 (3), 2008)

"The aim has been to provide a short and concise encyclopaedia for those who do not wish to purchase any of the several large or multi-volume encyclopaedias in the field. ... I am inclined to see this as a library reference book for most scientists. Practising statisticians, particularly those teaching, will probably find this a useful reference book with its original references ... worked through mathematical aspects and worked examples." (John Goodier, Reference Reviews, Vol. 23 (2), 2009)
