Kendall's Advanced Theory of Statistics, Classical Inference and the Linear Model, Hardback Book

Kendall's Advanced Theory of Statistics, Classical Inference and the Linear Model Hardback

Part of the Kendall's Advanced Theory of Statistics series

Hardback

Description

The development of statistical theory in the past fifty years is faithfully reflected in the history of the late Sir Maurice Kendall's volumes The Advanced Theory of Statistics.

The Advanced Theory began life as a two volume work (Volume 1, 1943; Volume 2, 1946) and grew steadily, as a single authored work until the late fifties.

At that point Alan Stuart became involved and the Advanced Theory was rewritten in three volumes.

When Keith Ord joined in the early eighties, Volume 3 became the largest and plans were developed to expand it into a series of monographs called the Kendall's Library of Statistics which would devote a book to each of the modern developments in statistics.

This series is well on the way with 5 titles in print and a further 7 on the way.

A new volume on Bayesian Inference was also commissioned from Tony O'Hagan and published in 1994 as Volume 2B of the Advanced Theory.

This Volume 2A is therefore the completely updated Volume 2 - Classical Inference and Relationship.

A new author, Steven Arnold, was invited to join Keith Ord and they have between them produced a work of the highest quality.

References have been updated and material revised throughout.

A new chapter on the linear model and least squares estimation has been added.
