Editorial Reviews

Pestman (U. of Nijmegen, the Netherlands) provides welcome levity to the technical material that follows by the prefatory photograph of the author as a young boy with a ball crying over his "inability to convert statistical data into round figures." This introductory text provides a broad foundation in probability, measure, and estimation theory; parametric and nonparametric statistics; stochastic analysis; vectorial statistics, and multiple regression analysis. The companion volume is (de Gruyter, 1998). Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
