From the reviews:

JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN STATISTICAL ASSOCIATION

„…clearly written and accessible with relatively few mathematical prerequisites. I found surprisingly few typographical errors; the authors are to be congratulated for this…Each chapter contains numerous exercises. These exercises appear to be at an appropriate level for a graduate course in statistics, and appear to provide appropriate reinforcement for the material in the preceding chapters.“

B. J. T. Morgan in „Short Book Reviews“, Vol. 20/3, December 2000

„The book is well written, and presents clearly an important and developing subject.“
