This text provides a systematic statement of the theory of statistics, with emphasis placed on general concepts rather than on mathematical rigour. A familiarity with standard statistical techniques is assumed.

Recenzje

"...the discussion is accessible and thought-provoking. The notes provide good entries to the literature on each chapter's topics as well as a brief historical survey of the topics...The exercises are challenging. Also of special interest are the numerous examples throughout the text."
