Synopsis

Theory and Methods of Statistics covers essential topics for advanced graduate students and professional research statisticians. This comprehensive resource covers many important areas in one manageable volume, including core subjects such as probability theory, mathematical statistics, and linear models, and various special topics, including nonparametrics, curve estimation, multivariate analysis, time series, and resampling. The book presents subjects such as "maximum likelihood and sufficiency" and is written with an intuitive, heuristic approach to build reader comprehension. It also includes many probability inequalities that are not only useful in the context of this text, but also as a resource for investigating convergence of statistical procedures.

About this title

Review:

"There will always be a need for a small number of mathematical statisticians, and this book would be a viable choice for training those people...In addition to its use as a textbook, this volume would make a good reference on the theory behind many standard methods."--MAA Reviews

Review:

A comprehensive treatment of foundational statistics, probability theory, linear models, and related special topics, including many probability inequalities useful for investigating convergence of statistical procedures
