Reviews

"This book is fresh with updated content and additional pages. Everitt, a strong statistician with some 50 books in publication, has once again devoted his talents and expertise to updating this dictionary. Skondral, an expert in multilevel and longitudinal modeling, is well published in biostatistics. These two great minds offer a book with nearly 4,000 statistical terms and 100-plus updated biographical entries. Cambridge deserves commendation for offering an updated edition consistently every four years. Highly recommended."
