Review
From the reviews of the second edition:
“Like the first edition, the new edition presents additional probability background material with applications to graduate students studying mathematical statistics, mathematical biology, engineering and applied mathematics. ... one important feature of this edition is that it includes a more extensive list of exercises. I think both instructors and students will appreciate this welcome addition. Further, the new edition offers more than 200 important references. ... researchers and graduate students in mathematical sciences with a host of backgrounds will find this new edition a useful reference.” (Technometrics, Vol. 53 (1), February, 2011)
“This text contributes to bridging the increasing gap between sophisticated mathematical themes in probability theory and pragmatic, application-oriented concepts in statistics and data analysis. ... A large number of exercises, many of which are newly included in this edition, facilitates the usage of the book for teaching purposes.” (Thorsten Dickhaus, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1216, 2011)
