Summary
Well received in its first edition, this edition gives a well developed, reliable introduction to the filed. The text gives students a strong theoretical foundation balanced with numerous applied and realistic exercises and examples. For flexibility in course contents, advanced or optional topics such as extreme-value distributions, regression and linear models, and reliability and survival distributions are included. This edition has been revised to include more theoretical discussion to provide a solid grounding in theory while giving students an idea of how the subject appliues to the real world. The text has also been revised to allow for an earlier development of properties of random variables and their distributions. Special probability distributions are placed separately in Chapter 3.
