The Cambridge Dictionary of Statistics

Rating:
Summary: A Must Have for every teacher and researcher
Review: An excellent yet concise encyclopedy of surprisingly wide range of statistical topics, very dense and ballanced text. Exhaustive descriptions and definitions on few lines of text with good referrences. I can hardly think of basic or advanced statistical terms not included here. Thanks.

Review: Brian Everitt is a well known statistician and author. This dictionary was prepared by a scholar and includes many famous statistician as well as statistical terms. It provides concise and accurate descriptions and in many cases also includes pictures and formulae. Literature references are often mentioned. Particularly useful to biostatisticians. It is an excellent reference document.

Summary: A very comprehensive dictionary
Review: I bought this book to celebrate passing my Master's course. It's worth every penny. There is hardly a Statistical term that one might want to refer to that is not defined in it. Just occasionally there is a definition which could be a bit more precise, e.g. the definition of hazard as a probability rather than its differential coefficient. Nevertheless, an excellently comprehensive book and a very worthwhile addition to anyone's library.
