Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"The strength of the work is its coverage of contemporary, computer-intensive methods and the detailed templates provided for implementing each one. Many people learn most quickly by working through an example that resembles a problem of their own, and so I think this aspect of the book will be widely appreciated."
N. Thompson Hobbs for Ecology
"The author's presentation of the material is meticulous in terms of organization and the use of well-defined notation. Nearly every method presented in the text has accompanying code in S-PLUS. Examples are interesting and most always involve real data. The topics are presented in a delightfully simple and intuitive fashion."
David H. Annis for The American Statistician
