Rezensionen
"This is an outstanding book in search of a proper audience. ... The authors do a really outstanding job of covering key elements of practice; they illustrate each point with examples (often more than one) nicely offset in gray boxes, and drawn from a huge range of fields. There are insights throughout the book, often ones that are not covered by more typical texts or courses. Despite being a statistical consultant for more than a decade, I learned a good deal and was, perhaps more importantly, given much to think about."
