The content herein addresses both the underlying mathematics and problems of application. As such, a reasonable level of competence in both statistics and mathematics is needed. This book is not intended as a first introduction to statistics and statistical analysis. Instead it assumes that the student is familiar with basic statistical techniques. The techniques are presented in a fundamental way but in a format accessible to students in a doctoral program, to practicing academicians, and to data analysts."--BOOK JACKET ER -
